Malonate

Description

Malonate (malonic acid) is a competitive inhibitor of Succinate dehydrogenase (Complex II).

Abbreviation: Mna

Reference: MiPNet09.12



MitoPedia topics: Inhibitor 

Application in HRR

Mna: Malonic acid ( CH2(COOH)2); Sigma M 1296, 5 g, store at R.T.; FW = 104.06.


Recommendation: Prepare fresh everyday!


Preparation of 2 M stock solution (dissolved in H20):

1) Weigh 20.8 mg malonic acid into a Eppendorf tube of appropriate volume (for final volume of 100 ยตl).
2) Dissolve in 85 ยตl 5 N KOH and check pH.
3) Titrate small volumes (2 ยตl) of 5 N KOH until you reach a pH of 6.0 (pH of 7.0 would be ideal, however the pH jumps from pH 6.0 to pH 10.0 with only very small excess KOH).
4) Add H2O to a final volume of 100 ยตl.
