Substrate Specificity and Allosteric Regulation of a d-Lactate Dehydrogenase from a Unicellular Cyanobacterium are Altered by an Amino Acid Substitution

Abstract Lactate/lactic acid is an important chemical compound for the manufacturing of bioplastics. The unicellular cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 can produce lactate from carbon dioxide and possesses d-lactate dehydrogenase (Ddh). Here, we performed a biochemical analysis of the Ddh fro...
