(LEC) LDH & CK Flashcards
(44 cards)
EC of Lactate Dehydrogenase
EC 1.1.1.27
LDH is a _____ containing enzyme
Zinc
Catalyzed the interconversion of Lactic Acid and Pyruvic Acid
Lactate Dehydrogenase
Coenzyme used by LDH
NAD+
Molecular weight of LDH
128 kDa
LDH has 4 subunits, hence LDH is termed as
Tetramer
LDH isoenzyme that migrates the fastest towards the anode
LD-1
LDH isoenzyme that migrates the slowest towards the anode
LD-5
The major fraction of LDH isoenzyme in healthy individuals
LD-2
Reference range for LDH
125 - 220 U/L
LDH Isoenzyme that predominates in the Serum
LD-2
LDH Isoenzyme that predominates in the Lungs
LD-3
LDH Isoenzyme that predominates in the Skeletal Muscle
LD-5
LDH Isoenzyme that predominates in the Liver
LD-5
Clinical Correlation for Highest Level of Total LDH
Pernicious Anemia
Hemolytic Disorders
LDH isoenzyme from the Heart & RBCs
LD-1 (HHHH) & LD-2 (HHHM)
LDH isoenzyme from the Lungs, Lymphocytes, Spleen, and Pancreas
LD-3 (HHMM)
LDH isoenzyme from the Liver
LD-4 (HMMM)
LDH isoenzyme from the Skeletal Muscle
LD-5 (MMMM)
Causes LD Flipped Pattern
Myocardial Infarction & Intravascular Hemolysis
LDH Isoenzyme elevated in Liver Damage/Intrahepatic Disorders
LD-4
LDH Isoenzyme elevated in Skeletal Muscle Damage/Muscle Dystrophy
LD-5
Isomorphic pattern when Total LDH is increased and the relative amount of each isoenzyme is roughly the same
Tombstone Pattern
This LDH Isoenzyme migrates cathodic to LD-5 and is an alcohol dehydrogenase, and signifies grave prognosis and impeding death
LD-6
