Usage And Synthesis |
| Uses | Citrate Assay kit has been used to determine the concentration of citrate in samples. | | General Description | Citrate is a key Tricarboxylic Acid (TCA) cycle intermediate formed by the addition of oxaloacetate to the acetyl group of acetyl-CoA. Citrate is transported out of the mitochondria via the citrate-malate shuttle and converted back to acetyl-CoA for fatty acid synthesis. Citrate is an allosteric modulator of both fatty acid synthesis via its actions on acetyl-CoA carboxylase and of glycolysis via its actions on phospho- fructokinase. Citrate metabolism and disposition can vary widely due to sex, age, and a variety of other factors including disease states. Cellular citrate levels are decreased in prostrate cancer cells and citrate levels may be a marker of prostrate cancer growth rate. The Citrate Assay Kit provides a simple, sensitive, and rapid means of quantifying citrate in a variety of samples. |
