Malonate

Vedclass · Answer

(C) Succinic dehydrogenase is an enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of succinate to fumarate in the Krebs cycle. Malonate is a structural analog of succinate. Because of its structural similarity,malonate competes with succinate for the active site of the enzyme succinic dehydrogenase. This binding prevents the substrate (succinate) from binding,thereby inhibiting the enzyme's activity. This is a classic example of competitive inhibition.
