A study of the distribution of lactate dehydrogenase isozymes in single fibers from normal human skeletal muscle is presented. The fibers were classified into red, intermediate and white types on histochemical grounds and their lactate dehydrogenase isozyme content assessed by electrophoretic separation in veronal buffered agar. The results generally agreed with previous homogenate studies on animal skeletal muscle, in that the white fibers contained almost exclusively isozymes IV and V, whereas red fibers were rich in isozymes I, II and III, but IV and V also appeared indigenous to these fibers. The intermediate fibers had an isozyme pattern combining the features of red and white fibers. The metabolic implications of these findings are discussed.

The interaction of two isoenzymes of lactate dehydrogenase from pig heart muscle (H4) and rabbit skeletal muscle (M4), with immobilized nucleotides was examined: the effects of pH and temperature on the binding of lactate dehydrogenase were studied with immobilized NAD+ matrices. The influence of substrate, product and sulphite on the binding of heart muscle lactate dehydrogenase to immobilized NAD+ was investigated. The interaction of both lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes with immobilized pyridine and adenine nucleotides and their derivatives were measured. The effects of these parameters on the interaction of lactate dehydrogenase with immobilized nucleotides were correlated with the known kinetic and molecular properties of the enzymes in free solution.
