AB A survey of representative invertebrates has revealed the presence of pyridine nucleotide-linked D-lactate dehydrogenase in a number of groups. All species studied contained either DD-or LL-lactate dehydrogenase, but no species contained both enzymes. The D-lactate dehydrogenase from Limulus polyphemus has been purified and has a molecular weight of 65,000.
