Malate Dehydrogenase Assay Kit has been used in LDH (lactate dehydrogenase) and malate dehydrogenase (MDH1) assays. It has also been used to estimate isocitrate dehydrogenase and succinate dehydrogenase activities.
一般的な説明
Malate dehydrogenase (MDH; EC 1.1.1.37) is an NAD oxidoreductase that catalyzes the NAD/NADH-dependent interconversion of malate and oxalacetate. This reaction is critical to maintain the malate/aspartate shuttle across the mitochondrial membrane and Krebs tricarboxylic acid cycle in the mitochondrial matrix. Increased MDH activity has been observed in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer′s disease.
