General description

Succinate Dehydrogenase (SDH) is part of complex II found in the inner part of the mitochondrial membrane. SDH is part of the citric acid cycle (TCA) that catalyze the oxidation of succinate to fumarate. Electrons from succinate are transferred to FAD forming FADH2 which transfer electrons to CoQ. Mutations in SDH cause hereditary paraganglioma/phaeochromocytoma syndrome and a neurodegenerative disorder known as Leigh syndrome. The Succinate Dehydrogenase Assay kit provides a simple and sensitive procedure for measuring SDH activity in a variety of tissues, cells, and isolated mitochondria. SDH activity is determined by generating a product with absorbance at 600 nm proportional to the enzymatic activity present. One unit of SDH is the amount of enzyme that generates 1.0 μmole of DCIP per minute at pH 7.2 at 25 °C.

Application

Succinate Dehydrogenase Assay Kit has been used to measure the SDH enzyme activity in cell and tissue culture supernatants and in purified mitchondria.
