Abstract

Abstract: This paper reports kinetic parameters (Km, kat) for reduction of approximately 20 a- keto acids by L-lactate dehydrogenase (L-LDH; EC 1.1. 1.27) from 5 sources (porcine heart, rabbit muscle, chicken liver, bovine heart, lobster tail). The~-LDH-catalyzed reduction reaction of four substrates representative of the range of activities observed has been carried out on a preparative scale using rabbit muscle L-LDH, and absolute configurations ...
