  2. Oxaloacetic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxaloacetic_acid

    Malate is acted on by malate dehydrogenase to become oxaloacetate, producing a molecule of NADH. After that, oxaloacetate will be recycled to aspartate, as transaminases prefer these keto acids over the others. This recycling maintains the flow of nitrogen into the cell. Relationship of oxaloacetic acid, malic acid, and aspartic acid

  3. C4 carbon fixation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C4_carbon_fixation

    1. CO 2 is fixed to produce a four-carbon molecule (malate or aspartate). 2. The molecule exits the cell and enters the bundle sheath cells. 3. It is then broken down into CO 2 and pyruvate. CO 2 enters the Calvin cycle to produce carbohydrates. 4. Pyruvate reenters the mesophyll cell, where it is reused to produce malate or aspartate.

    Oxaloacetate + 2 H + + 2 e − → Malate-0.17 [10] While under standard conditions malate cannot reduce the more electronegative NAD +:NADH couple, in the cell the concentration of oxaloacetate is kept low enough that Malate dehydrogenase can reduce NAD + to NADH during the citric acid cycle. Fumarate + 2 H + + 2 e − → Succinate +0.03 [9]

  5. Anaplerotic reactions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anaplerotic_reactions

    Malate, in the mitochondrial matrix, can be used to make pyruvate (catalyzed by malic enzyme) or oxaloacetic acid, both of which can enter the citric acid cycle. Glutamine can also be used to produce oxaloacetate during anaplerotic reactions in various cell types through "glutaminolysis", which is also seen in many c-Myc transformed cells. [ 3 ]

  6. Oxaloacetate decarboxylase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxaloacetate_decarboxylase

    Oxaloacetate decarboxylase is a carboxy-lyase involved in the conversion of oxaloacetate into pyruvate.. It is categorized under EC 4.1.1.3.. Oxaloacetate decarboxylase activity in a given organism may be due to activity of malic enzyme, pyruvate kinase, malate dehydrogenase, pyruvate carboxylase and PEP carboxykinase or the activity of "real" oxaloacetate decarboxylases.

  7. Malate oxidase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malate_oxidase

    In enzymology, a malate oxidase (EC 1.1.3.3) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction (S)-malate + O 2 oxaloacetate + H 2 O 2. Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are (S)-malate and O 2, whereas its two products are oxaloacetate and H 2 O 2.

  9. Malate dehydrogenase (oxaloacetate-decarboxylating) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malate_dehydrogenase_(oxa...

    In enzymology, a malate dehydrogenase (oxaloacetate-decarboxylating) (EC 1.1.1.38) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction below (S)-malate + NAD + pyruvate + CO 2 + NADH. Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are (S)-malate and NAD +, whereas its 3 products are pyruvate, CO 2, and NADH.
