Citrate Synthase Assay
This kit is used for the fast and simple measurement of citrate synthase activity as well as the detection of intact mitochondrial inner membrane. It is for research purposes only and not for use in animals, humans, or diagnostic procedures.
Citrate synthase is the initial enzyme of the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. This enzyme catalyzes the reaction between acetyl coenzyme A (acetyl CoA) and oxaloacetic acid to form citric acid and CoA with a thiol group (CoA-SH). This colorimetric assay is based on the reaction between 5, 5’-Dithiobis 2nitrobenzoic acid (DTNB) and CoA-SH to form TNB, which exhibits maximum absorbance at 412 nm. The intensity of the absorbance is proportional to the citrate synthase activity. This enzyme is an exclusive marker of the mitochondrial matrix1.
