Gene information for LDHB (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID3945
Official gene symbolLDHB
Full namelactate dehydrogenase B
Aliases,LDH-H,TRG-5,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes an enzyme which catalyzes the reversible conversion of lactate and pyruvate, and NAD and NADH, in the glycolytic pathway. Mutations in this gene are associated with lactate dehydrogenase B deficiency. Pseudogenes have been identified on the X chromosome and on chromosome. Multiple alternatively spliced variants, encoding the same protein, have been identified. [provided by RefSeq]
