Lactate dehydrogenase in Oryza sativa L. seedlings and roots. Identification and partial characterization
1991
Rivoal, J. | Ricard, B. | Pradet, A.
A lactate dehydrogenase activity is present in rice (Oryza sativa L.) seedlings and roots. Under aerobic conditions, lactate dehydrogenase activity is barely detectable in rice seedlings and is very low in rice roots. In 30 day old roots, the activity is increased two to three times by an anoxic or hypoxic treatment and can be detected on immunoblots by an antiserum raised against barley lactate dehydrogenase. The activity present in aerobic seedlings was partially purified. The native enzyme has a molecular mass of 160 kilodaltons, and is a tetramer of 2 subunit (38 and 39 kilodaltons) randomly associated. Studies of substrate specificity, native gel electrophoresis, and immunoblot analysis indicate that the partially purified enzyme is a typical lactate dehydrogenase. However, no increase of lactate dehydrogenase activity or protein was observed in seedlings transferred to anoxia.
