Claim: Lactate—malate transhydrogenase is an enzyme that produces pyruvate and malate, from the family of oxidoreductase, an enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of electrons from one molecule to another.
Evidence: In enzymology, a lactate—malate transhydrogenase (EC ) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are (S)-lactate and oxaloacetate, whereas its two products are pyruvate and malate. This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with other acceptors. In biochemistry, an oxidoreductase is an enzyme that catalyzes the transfer of electrons from one molecule, the reductant, also called the electron donor, to another, the oxidant, also called the electron acceptor.
