Solution
The correct option is A Isoenzyme
Isoenzyme is also known as isozyme. When the two enzymes differ in amino acid sequence but catalyze the same chemical reaction they are known as isoenzyme. They are two different molecular form of the enzyme. R. L. Hunter and Clement Markert were first to define isoenzyme. Lactate dehydrogenase 1 acts on heart and erythrocyte while lactate dehydrogenase 3 acts on brain and kidney. It catalyzes the interconversion of pyruvate and lactate and interconversion of NADH and NAD+. It exists in different forms.So, the correct answer is option A.
