1. The stereospecificity of 20 enzymes from plants is reported. 2. The stereospecificity of all known forms of malate dehydrogenase in plants and animals has been shown to be A-specific. 3. The generalization that ‘the stereospecificity of a particular reaction is independent of the source of the enzyme’ is confirmed for a total of 12 plant enzymes. 4. A new generalization is proposed: ‘When a metabolic sequence involves consecutive nicotinamide–adenine dinucleotide-dependent reactions, the dehydrogenases have the same stereospecificity.’

The generalization that ‘when a metabolic sequence involves consecutive nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide-dependent reactions, the dehydrogenases have the same stereospecificity’ was tested and confirmed for three metabolic sequences. (1) NAD+-xylitol (D-xylulose) dehydrogenase and NADP+-xylitol (L-xylulose) dehydrogenase are both B-specific. (2) D-Mannitol 1-phosphate dehydrogenase and D-sorbitol 6-phosphate dehydrogenase are both B-specific. (3) meso Tartrate dehydrogenase and oxaloglycollate reductive decarboxylase are both A-specific. Other dehydrogenases associated with the metabolism of meso-tartrate in Pseudomonas putida, such as hydroxypyruvate reductase and tartronate semialdehyde reductase, were also shown to be A-specific. Malate dehydrogenase from Pseudomonas putida was A-specific, and the proposition is discussed that the common A-stereospecificity among the dehydrogenases involved in meso-tartrate metabolism reflects their origin from malate dehydrogenase.
