Quinone-dependent D-lactate dehydrogenase Dld (Cg1027) is essential for growth of
Background Corynebacterium glutamicum is able to grow with lactate as sole or combined carbon and energy source. Quinone-dependent L-lactate dehydrogenase LldD is known to be essential for utilization of L-lactate by C. glutamicum.

Identification of human D lactate dehydrogenase deficiency [PDF]
D-lactic acidosis typically occurs in the context of short bowel syndrome; excess D-lactate is produced by intestinal bacteria. Here, the authors identify two point mutations in the human lactate dehydrogenase D (LDHD) gene that cause enzymatic loss of ...

d-Lactate transport and metabolism in rat liver mitochondria [PDF]
In the present study we investigated whether isolated rat liver mitochondria can take up and metabolize d-lactate. We found the following: (1) externally added d-lactate causes oxygen uptake by mitochondria [P/O ratio (the ratio of mol of ATP synthesized to mol of oxygen atoms reduced to water during oxidative phosphorylation) = 2] and membrane ...

Glyoxalase 2 Drives D-Lactate Oncometabolite Signaling to Promote Prostate Cancer Aggressiveness via FAK/Src Activation [PDF]
Glyoxalase 2 (Glo2) is a key enzyme of the glyoxalase system that catalyzes the conversion of S-lactoylglutathione (LSG) into glutathione (GSH) and D-lactate.

New Insights Into the Function of Flavohemoglobin in Mycobacterium tuberculosis: Role as a NADPH-Dependent Disulfide Reductase and D-Lactate-Dependent Mycothione Reductase [PDF]
Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) produces an unconventional flavohemoglobin (MtbFHb) that carries a FAD-binding site similar to D-lactate dehydrogenases (D-LDH) and oxidizes D-lactate into pyruvate.

Serum D-lactate, a novel serological biomarker, is promising for the diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection [PDF]
Background Although many markers are used for diagnosis of periprosthetic joint infection (PJI), serological screening and diagnosis for PJI are still challenging.

Stereospecific lactylation in bacteriology: L/D-lactate partitioning shapes host metabolic-disease axis [PDF]
Two stereoisomers of lactate, L- and D-lactate, serve as critical conduits for bidirectional communication in host-bacteria interactions and the development of diseases.

L- and D-Lactate: unveiling their hidden functions in disease and health [PDF]
Lactate, once considered a mere byproduct of anaerobic metabolism, is now recognized as a critical signaling molecule with diverse roles in physiology and pathology. There are two stereoisomers of lactate: L- and D-lactate. Recent studies have shown that

Transport and metabolism of d-lactate in Jerusalem artichoke mitochondria [PDF]
We report here initial studies on D-lactate metabolism in Jerusalem artichoke. It was found that: 1) D-lactate can be synthesized by Jerusalem artichoke by virtue of the presence of glyoxalase II, the activity of which was measured photometrically in both isolated Jerusalem artichoke mitochondria and cytosolic fraction after the addition of S-D-lactoyl-
