Basic information

Full name
lactate dehydrogenase A
Ensembl
ENSG00000134333.14
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the conversion of L-lactate and NAD to pyruvate and NADH in the final step of anaerobic glycolysis. The protein is found predominantly in muscle tissue and belongs to the lactate dehydrogenase family. Mutations in this gene have been linked to exertional myoglobinuria. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. The human genome contains several non-transcribed pseudogenes of this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2008]

Tumor and normal comparison

Signed p-values
Data type Meta P BRCA CCRCC COAD GBM HNSCC LSCC LUAD OV PDAC UCEC

* P-values are from Wilcoxon rank sum test and can be clicked to show the box plots. Positive values mean higher abundance in tumor. BRCA and GBM do not have normal samples.

Associations of the protein abundance of LDHA with phenotypes and mutations

Signed p-values
Phenotype Meta P BRCA CCRCC COAD GBM HNSCC LSCC LUAD OV PDAC UCEC

* P-values could be from test for Spearman correlation, Wilcoxon rank sum test, Jonckheere-Terpstra trend test or Cox regression depending on the data type. P-values for individual cohorts can be clicked to show the data plots. The matrix icons in each row can be clicked to show a heatmap summary of associations across all cohorts and omics. The rows in the table can be expanded to show results from other omics.

Cis-association

Associations between omics data of LDHA

* The numbers are Spearman correlation coefficients and can be clicked to show the scatter plots. The color and size of the circles correlate with the coefficients.

Trans-association

Associations of the protein abundance of LDHA and the protein abundance of other genes

Signed p-values
Gene Meta P BRCA CCRCC COAD GBM HNSCC LSCC LUAD OV PDAC UCEC

* P-values are from test for Spearman correlation. P-values for individual cohorts can be clicked to show the data plots. The matrix icons in each row can be clicked to show a heatmap summary of associations across all cohorts and omics. The rows in the table can be expanded to show results from other omics.
