Lactate Dehydrogenase Variant from Human Blood: Evidence for Molecular Subunits

Abstract
A variant of human lactate dehydrogenase is described. The occurrence of lactate dehydrogenase-1, -2, -3, and -4 as five, four, three, and two components, respectively, is interpreted as supporting the hypothesis that LDH isozymes are tetramers formed from various combinations of two types of subunits.
