Properties
Description
Succinyl coenzyme A synthetase from prokaryote, a crucial enzyme in the tricarboxylic acid cycle, results in the interconversion of succinyl-coenzymeA to succinate.
Molecular Weight
30.8 kDa; 41.4 kDa
Unit Definition
One unit of Succinyl-CoA synthetase activity is defined as the amount of enzyme required to release one µmole of succinyl CoA from succinic acid (5.8 mM) per minute in the presence of NADH and Coenzyme A in Glycylglycine buffer (34 mM), pH 8.4 at 25oC.
Applications
Succinyl coenzyme A synthetase from prokaryote can be used to determine succinic acid in the carbohydrate research and food industries.
