GlycoErase™ LDHB Knockout HepG2 Cell Line (CAT#: GLJF-0825-JF649)

Description	GlycoErase™ LDHB knockout HepG2 cell line lacks LDHB, the B subunit of lactate dehydrogenase, which catalyzes pyruvate-lactate interconversion and NADH/NAD⁺ cycling. Alternative splicing produces peroxisomal isoforms. Mutations in LDHB cause lactate dehydrogenase B deficiency. This knockout model supports studies of isozyme diversity, metabolic compartmentalization, and inherited enzyme deficiencies in liver cells.

Target	LDHB
Full Name	Lactate Dehydrogenase B
Alternative Name	LDH-B; LDH-H; LDHBD; TRG-5; HEL-S-281
Location	12p12.1
Gene ID	3945
Summary	This gene encodes the B chain of lactate dehydrogenase, responsible for the reversible interconversion of pyruvate and lactate, alongside NADH and NAD+, following glycolysis. Multiple transcript variants exist, including a C-terminally extended isoform generated via stop codon readthrough, which localizes to peroxisomes. Mutations cause lactate dehydrogenase B deficiency. Pseudogenes are present on chromosomes X, 5, and 13.
