Primary structure of bovine lactate dehydrogenase-A isozyme and its synthesis in Escherichia coli.

Eleven cDNA clones encoding lactate dehydrogenase(LDH)-A isozyme were isolated from a bovine lymphocyte cDNA library, and the nucleotide sequences of three of the clones (pLDH5, pLDH9 and pLDH12) were determined. With the exception of variation in the 5' portion, two cDNA clones (pLDH9 and pLDH12) appeared to contain the full-length cDNA of 1786 bp, consisting of the protein-coding sequence (996 bp), the 5'- and the 3'-untranslated regions and the poly(dA) tail. The predicted amino acid (aa) sequence of bovine LDH-A (332 aa) showed 96.7% homology with that of pig LDH-A. The protein-coding cDNA region (1650 bp) was inserted into an Escherichia coli expression vector ptac11 and expressed. The protein synthesized in E. coli showed enzyme activity of LDH and was identified by cellogel electrophoresis as LDH-5 isozyme whose subunit M chain is the product of the LDH-A gene.[1]
