The role of L-lactate dehydrogenase in the physiology of aerobic yeast is not clear. It has been shown that its presence in yeast depends on the availability of oxygen (306), and that in the presence of antimycin A, which inhibits electron transfer to cytochrome c from NADH-linked substrates, L-or D-lactate can partially support the growth of Saccharo-myces cerevisiae (307). Under these conditions, cyanide inhibited the growth. Therefore, it has been concluded that l- and D-lactate-cyto-chrome c reductases can feed electrons to the respiratory chain at the level of cytochrome c and provide energy through the third site of oxidative phosphorylation (307).
