Kinetic properties and thermal stabilities silbrade of Hoplias malabaricus liver and skeletal muscle unfractionated malate dehydrogenase (MDH, EC 1.1.1.37) and its isolated isoforms were analyzed to further study the possible sMDH-A* locus duplication evolved from a recent tandem duplication.Both A (A1 and A2) and B isoforms had similar optima pH (7.

5-8.0).While Hoplias A isoform could not be characterized as thermostable, B could as thermolabile.A isoforms differed from B isoform in having higher Km contraderm values for oxaloacetate.The possibly duplicated A2 isoform showed higher substrate affinity than the A1.

Hoplias duplicated A isoforms may influence the direction of carbon flow between glycolisis and gluconeogenesis.
