Contamination of Malic Dehydrogenase with Apotransaminase

Hyman J. Zimmerman 1, Ivan J. Silverberg 1, and Michael West 1

Studies of 4 commercially available malic dehydrogenase preparations have shown very small amounts of transaminase activity. Incubation of these preparations with pyridoxal 5-phosphate has revealed an enhanced transaminase activity. The data reported here suggest that the enhanced transaminase activity represents apotransaminase contaminating the malic dehydrogenase preparation.
