Background
The human oxidoreductase Lactate Dehydrogenase A (LDHA) (EC:1.1.1.27) is a key enzyme in lactic acid metabolism. It interconverts pyruvate and NADH to lactate and NAD+ respectively. In mammals, LDHA exists as a tetramer and is primarily found in skeletal muscle tissues. LDHA is a common marker to assay for tissue damage and is also known to promote tumor proliferation in breast, lung, and pancreatic cancer patients. In BioVision’s LDHA Inhibitor Screening Kit, LDHA catalyzes the conversion of lactate to an intermediate that interacts with a probe to develop a color that can be measured at OD 450 nm. In the presence of a LDHA specific inhibitor, the reaction is impeded. A LDHA Inhibitor Control is included to compare the efficacy of the sample inhibitors. The assay is high-throughput adaptable and can be completed in less than 1 hr

Properties
Colorimetric assays or detection use UV absorption or enzymatic color reaction. Human proteins, cDNA and human recombinants are used in human reactive ELISA kits and to produce anti-human mono and polyclonal antibodies. Modern humans (Homo sapiens, primarily ssp. Homo sapiens sapiens). Depending on the epitopes used human ELISA kits can be cross reactive to many other species. Mainly analyzed are human serum, plasma, urine, saliva, human cell culture supernatants and biological samples.

Additional description
Tissue, pathway, proteinase, peptidase, protease ,acrosin, lipoprotein, activator, caspase, trypsin, papain, esterase inhibitors are proteins or receptor ligands or receptor antagonists that bind to an enzyme receptor and decreases its activity. Since blocking an enzyme's activity can kill a pathogen or correct a metabolic imbalance, many drugs are enzyme inhibitors. Not all receptor antagonist that bind to enzymes are inhibitors; enzyme activator ligands or agonists bind to enzymes and increase their enzymatic activity, while enzyme substrates bind and are converted to products in the normal catalytic cycle of the enzyme.
