| Accepted name: |
(R)-2-hydroxyglutarate—pyruvate transhydrogenase |
| Reaction: |
(R)-2-hydroxyglutarate + pyruvate = 2-oxoglutarate + (R)-lactate |
| Other name(s): |
DLD3 (gene name) |
| Systematic name: |
(R)-2-hydroxyglutarate:pyruvate oxidoreductase [(R)-lactate-forming] |
| Comments: |
The enzyme, characterized in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, also functions as EC 1.1.2.4, D-lactate dehydrogenase (cytochrome), and is active with oxaloacetate as electron acceptor forming (R)-malate. |
