Abstract excerpt
Succinate dehydrogenase (EC 1.3.99.1) in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a mitochondrial respiratory chain enzyme that utilizes the cofactor, FAD, to catalyze the oxidation of succinate and the reduction of ubiqinone. The succinate dehydrogenase enzyme is a heterotetramer composed of a flavoprotein, an iron-sulfur protein, and two hydrophobic subunits. The FAD is covalently attached to a histidine residue...
