The term isoenzyme is used to describe enzymically active proteins,
catalysing the same reaction and occurring in the same species, but
differing in certain of their physico-chemical properties. Although
the occurrence of enzymes in multiple molecular forms has been
recognized for several decades, the application of electrophoretic
and, to a lesser extent, chromatographic techniques has led to
rapid developments in recent years. Since the discovery of the
heterogeneity of lactate dehy- drogenase, reported almost
simultaneously by Vesel I and Beam and by Wieland and Pfleiderer in
1957, the multiple forms of this enzyme have become the subject of
an extensive literature, and the techniques introduced have been
applied to investigations of other isoenzymes. Isoenzymes,
especially those of lactate dehydrogenase and alkaline phosphatase,
have found many applications as diagnostic agents in clin- ical
chemistry, while others, such as those of cholinesterase and
glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, exhibit a biological
polymorphism of con- siderable interest in genetics. Recent
additions to our understanding of the chemical structure of the
lactate dehydrogenase isoenzymes have indicated their great
potential in fields as diverse as immunology, em- bryology and
comparative anatomy. These remarkable developments suggest that the
time is opportune for present knowledge to be surveyed, and I have
compiled this monograph in the hope that it will be found useful by
biochemists, pathologists, clinicians, geneticists and others with
interests in enzymology.
