Abstract excerpt
A procarbazine hydrochloride-induced mutation at the Ldh-1 structural locus encoding the A subunit of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was used to study the molecular and metabolic basis of severe hemolytic anemia due to LDH-A deficiency in the mouse. The mutant allele designated Ldh-1a-m1Neu codes for an enzyme that as homotetramer differs from the wild-type enzyme by a marked instability, acidic shift of the pH...
