Kinetic mechanism of the hydroxypyruvate-lactate dehydrogenase-NADH system.
Chicken liver lactate dehydrogenase L-lactate : NAD+ oxidoreductase, EC1.1.1.27) reversibly catalyses the conversion of hydroxypyruvate to L-glycerate. The variation of the initial reaction rate with the substrate or coenzyme (NADH) concentration together with the inhibition caused by the reaction products and excess substrates, reveal that the kinetic mechanism of the reaction, with hydroxypyruvate as substrate, is of the rapid-equilibrium, ordered-ternary-complex type; NADH is the first substrate in the reaction sequence. Rate equations have been developed for the hydroxypyruvate.E.NADH system without inhibitors, with excess substrates, and with reaction products. Comparison of the rate equations obtained with those calculated theoretically from an ordered-ternary-complex mechanism reveals the existence of E.NAD.NADH,E.NAD-hydroxypyruvate and E.hydroxypyruvate complexes.
