Product Description

Complex II, also known as succinate-coenzyme Q reductase (SDH, EC 1.3.5.1), is one of the five complexes involved in oxidative phosphorylation in the inner mitochondrial membrane and also a member of the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA). It catalyzes electron transfer from succinate to the electron carrier, ubiquinone, but unlike the other four complexes it is not a proton pump. The product ubiquinol is utilized by complex III in the respiratory chain and the product fumarate is necessary to maintain the TCA cycle.



Succinate + ubiquinone (Q) → Fumarate + ubiquinol (QH2)

The Mitochondrial Complex II Activity Assay is designed for determining the Complex II activity in a sample. Each of the 96 wells in the kit has been coated with an anti-Complex II monoclonal antibody (mAb) which purifies the enzyme from a complex sample such as mitochondria, tissue homogenate or cell lysate. After this in-well purification the production of ubiquinol by the enzyme is coupled to the reduction of the dye DCPIP (2,6-diclorophenolindophenol) and a decreases in its absorbance at 600 nm which in turn recycles the substrate ubiquinone, as shown below.

ubiquinol (QH2) + DCPIP (blue) → ubiquinone (Q) + DCPIPH2 (colorless)
