Query author contributions in Reactome
Reactome depends on collaboration between our curation team and outside experts to
assemble and peer-review its pathway modules. The integration of ORCID within Reactome
enables us to meet a key challenge with authoring, curating and reviewing biological
information by incentivizing and crediting the external experts that contribute their
expertise and time to the Reactome curation process. More information is available at
ORCID and Reactome.
If you have an ORCID ID that is not listed on this page, please
forward this information to us and we will update your Reactome pathway records.

FUNCTION Interconverts simultaneously and stereospecifically pyruvate and lactate with concomitant interconversion of NADH and NAD(+).CATALYTIC ACTIVITY (S)-lactate + NAD(+) = pyruvate + NADH + H(+)ACTIVITY REGULATION Fermentation of pyruvate to lactate is inhibited when bound to folliculin FLCN, perhaps partly by FLCN preventing binding of cofactor NADH (PubMed:34381247).PATHWAY Fermentation; pyruvate fermentation to lactate; (S)-lactate from pyruvate: step 1/1.SUBUNIT Homotetramer (PubMed:11276087). Interacts with PTEN upstream reading frame protein MP31 (PubMed:33406399). Interacts with folliculin FLCN; the interaction is direct and inhibits enzymatic activity (PubMed:34381247).INTERACTION Predominantly expressed in anaerobic tissues such as skeletal muscle and liver.PTM ISGylated.DISEASE The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.SIMILARITY Belongs to the LDH/MDH superfamily. LDH family.ONLINE INFORMATION Lactate dehydrogenase entryONLINE INFORMATION Another dark horse - Issue 109 of September 2009
