- The muscle enzyme lactate dehydrogenase catalyzes the reaction NADH and NAD+ are the reduced and oxidized forms, respectively, of the coenzyme NAD. Solutions of NADH, but not NAD+, absorb light at 340 nm. This property is used to determine the concentration of NADH in solution by measuring spectrophotometrically the amount of light absorbed at 340 nm by the solution. Explain how these properties of NADH can be used to design a quantitative assay for lactate dehydrogenase.A new ATP-producing protein is discovered that couples ATP production to the oxidation of NADPH by oxidative phosphorylation.
