Abstract
1. 1. Acanthamoeba lactic dehydrogenase ( d-lactate specific, EC 1.1.1.28) has been studied through the use of polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and isoelectric focusing (PAGIEF). 2. 2. Data from PAGE showed the presence of only a single macromolecular form of the enzyme in trophozoites, but PAGIEF data demonstrated that at least three LDH species occur. 3. 3. Molecular weight determinations indicated a tetrameric assembly state for the enzyme. 4. 4. Multiple molecular forms of the enzyme (isoenzymes) are encoded either by genes at two loci or by two alleles at a single LDH locus.
