Which of the Following are Isoenzymes?
9
Isoenzymes/ Isozymes
The term “isoenzyme” or “isozyme” should apply only to
those multiple forms of enzymes arising from genetically
determined differences in primary structure, and not to
those derived by modification of the same primary
sequence.
The Nomenclature of Multiple Forms of Enzymes: IUPAC-IUB Commission on Biochemical Nomenclature (CBN) Recommendations (1971)
True isoenzymes result from the existence of more than
one gene locus coding for the structure of the enzyme
protein.
Tietz Textbook of Clinical Chemistry and Molecular Diagnostics. 5th ed (2012)
10
Isoforms
Post-translational modifications of enzyme molecules
give rise to multiple forms known as isoforms
Tietz Textbook of Clinical Chemistry and Molecular Diagnostics. 5th ed (2012)
Isoforms can differ in their activity and regulatory
properties
11
Identify the Isoenzymes and the Isoforms
12
Why should there be Isoenzymes?

Clinical Utility of Isoenzymes:
 Functional vs Non-functional plasma enzymes

Questions:
1. What is the basis of the numbering of iso-enzymes?
 In naming isozymes, the normal enzyme name should be used,
followed by a number.
 The numbers should be allotted preferably on the basis of
electrophoretic mobility under defined conditions- the lower
numbers given to the forms with the higher mobility towards the
anode.
 In photographs or diagrams of electrophoretic results, the anode
should be oriented to the top or right-hand side of the page.
2. How many E.C numbers will LDH have?

Lactate is considered to be
a “metabolic dead end”.
Then why convert pyruvate
to lactate?
Functions of LDH Isoenzymes
28
SEPARATION OF LDH ISOENZYMES
29
LDH Isozymes are Separated by:
 Electrophoresis
 Selective inhibitors
 Sodium perchlorate inhibits all LDH isozymes except
LDH1
 Ion exchange chromatography
 Immunoprecipitation
 Separates LDH1 and LDH 5 from other LDH isoenzymes
30
Electrophoresis of LDH Isozymes:
31
What will be the approximate molecular weight of each subunit?
Electrophoresis
of LDH
Isoenzymes:
32
Electrophoresis of LDH Isozymes:
 Sample: Serum
 Why NOT plasma?
 Stored serum?
 How will you visualize the separated isoenzymes?
33
Visualization of LDH Isoenzymes:
34
ACTIVITY STAINING/ ZYMOGRAPHY
35
Zymography: Gross and Lapière (1962)
36

Activity Staining for LDH Isoenzymes:
 How will you proceed after electrophoresis?
 Can you use IFCC method of Serum LDH estimation
for activity staining?
38
Pyruvate + NADH+H+ Lactate + NAD+
Rate of disappearance measured at 340nm
pH= 7.4-7.8
LDH
No
Soluble
Lactate + NAD Pyruvate + NADH
NAD+ + PMS[reduced]NADH + H+ + PMS
NBT + PMS[reduced] + PMS
LDH
Phenazine methosulfate (PMS) acts as electron carrier for
reduction of tetrazolium salts to coloured product
Activity Staining for LDH Isoenzymes:
NBT[reduced]

NBT is not reduced
Densitometry:
42
Reference interval for Serum LDH: 115–221 U/L
Activity Staining:
 Pre-requisites:
 Protein in native state
 Ability to form an insoluble product
 Electrophoresis under optimum conditions
 Shortcomings:
 Artificial environment
 Semi-quantitative data
43
Electrophoretic Patterns
NORMAL LIVER DAMAGE
MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION MUSCLE DAMAGE
HBD Activity of LDH
 Assay for H-subunit
45
Precautions:
 Avoid EDTA vial for sample collection
 Hemolysis should be avoided
 Proper temperature should be maintained during
electrophoresis
 Staining should be done in dark as PMS is light
sensitive.
 Standard precautions while handling serum
46
Thank you!

  • 10. Isoenzymes/ Isozymes The term “isoenzyme” or “isozyme” should apply only to those multiple forms of enzymes arising from genetically determined differences in primary structure, and not to those derived by modification of the same primary sequence. The Nomenclature of Multiple Forms of Enzymes: IUPAC-IUB Commission on Biochemical Nomenclature (CBN) Recommendations (1971) True isoenzymes result from the existence of more than one gene locus coding for the structure of the enzyme protein.

  • 22. Questions: 1. What is the basis of the numbering of iso-enzymes?  In naming isozymes, the normal enzyme name should be used, followed by a number.  The numbers should be allotted preferably on the basis of electrophoretic mobility under defined conditions- the lower numbers given to the forms with the higher mobility towards the anode.  In photographs or diagrams of electrophoretic results, the anode should be oriented to the top or right-hand side of the page. 2. How many E.C numbers will LDH have? 22

Editor's Notes

  1. Other pathway where MDH1 and MDH2 are invoved?
  2. M- Chr 11 H- Chr 12
  3. in vitro differences in kinetic properties of the isoenzyme may be inappropriate to explain actual physiological actions for several reasons: differences in kinetic properties between LDH-1 and LDH-5 are less marked at 37~ (body temperature) than at 25~ high intracellular concentrations of the enzyme are present, and differences in the actual ratio of ketopyruvate to enolpyruvate exist (the enol form may be the more potent inhibitor). Furthermore, the occurrence of similar isoenzyme patterns in widely different tissues with divergent metabolic goals (e.g., LDH-5 in liver and muscle; LDH-1 in heart and erythrocytes) points out our tack of understanding of their precise role.
