Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is a main component of anaerobic respiration within the human body. This molecule come into play when there is a lack of oxygen, such as during intense exercise.  Anaerobic respiration is defined as respiration without the involvement of oxygen. Anaerobic respiration is used during intense exercises or other strenuous activities, when one is lacking available oxygen. LDH is mainly found in the heart, liver, kidney, and muscles of the body; each with a slightly different composition. Lactate dehydrogenase is a quaternary structureis composed of two main subunits, H and M (heart and muscle).Based on the different reactions the two subunits preform, different combinations can be found throughout the body.
