Malate dehydrogenase

Description

Mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase is localized in the mitochondrial matrix and oxidizes malate, generated from fumarate by fumarase, to oxaloacetate, reducing NAD+ to NADH+H+ in the TCA cycle. This enzyme's reaction is reversible. Malate is added as a substrate in most N-pathway control states.

Abbreviation: mtMDH
