Description

Lactate dehydrogenase

Gene Summary

Enables L-lactate dehydrogenase (NAD+) activity and alpha-ketoglutarate reductase activity. Involved in NAD+ metabolic process and monocarboxylic acid metabolic process. Is active in cytosol. Is expressed in several structures, including adult heart; anterior endoderm anlage; imaginal disc; muscle cell; and organism subdivision. Used to study disease of metabolism. Orthologous to several human genes including LDHA (lactate dehydrogenase A); LDHAL6A (lactate dehydrogenase A like 6A); and LDHB (lactate dehydrogenase B).
