ICD-11 definition : This refers to a deficiency in the enzyme present in a wide variety of organisms,
including plants and animals. This exist in four distinct enzyme classes. Two of them
are cytochrome c-dependent enzymes, each acting on either D-lactate (EC 1.1.2.4) or
L-lactate (EC 1.1.2.3). The other two are NAD(P)-dependent enzymes, each acting on
either D-lactate (EC 1.1.1.28) or L-lactate (EC 1.1.1.27). This article is about the
NAD(P)-dependent L-lactate dehydrogenase.;
