citrate synthase การใช้

Citrate synthase is commonly used as a quantitative enzyme marker for the presence of intact mitochondria.
After a strong Cit + + phenotype evolved, the increased citrate synthase activity became detrimental.
It had the effect of increasing citrate synthase activity, and they showed that it permitted improved growth on acetate.
Citrate synthase is localized within eukaryotic cells in the mitochondrial matrix, but is encoded by nuclear DNA rather than mitochondrial.
Citrate synthase activity was unchanged, suggesting an absence of mitochondrial proliferation that commonly occurs in response to respiratory chain defects.
