D-Lactic Dehydrogenase from Lactobacillus leichmanii, lyophilized powder, 150-300 units/mg protein
Application
In the food industry, the primary catalysis is coupled to conversion of NADH and H+ to NAD+ with diaphorase coupled with converting the non-fluorescent resazurin to the highly fluorescent substance resorufin to measure the content of D-lactate in food products.
Biochem/physiol Actions
D-lactic dehydrogenase catalyzes the conversion of pyruvate into D-lactate, with oxidation of NADH to NAD+. D-lactic dehydrogenase can also catalyze the reverse reaction, conversion of D-lactate into pyruvate with reduction of NAD+ to NADH.
Packaging
500, 2500 units in poly bottle
Physical form
Lyophilized powder containing phosphate buffer salts
Unit Definition
D-lactic dehydrogenase catalyzes the conversion of pyruvate into D-lactate, with oxidation of NADH to NAD+. D-lactic dehydrogenase can also catalyze the reverse reaction, conversion of D-lactate into pyruvate with reduction of NAD+ to NADH.
One unit will reduce 1.0 µmole of pyruvate to D-lactate per min at pH 7.0 at 25 °C.
