Construction Of Recombinant Escherichia Coli Bad85 For The Production Of High Purity L-Lactic Acid
Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH, EC 1.1.1.27) catalyzes the oxidation of pyruvate to lactate in facultative anaerobes. Two forms of lactate dehydrogenase with different substrate specificities have been identified namely the L-lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27) and D-lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.28)....
