title: [Characteristics of the interaction between 2-alkylmalonates and the substrate-binding site of the dicarboxylate carrier of rat liver mitochondria].
abstract: The effect of thirteen synthetic 2-n-alkyl derivatives of malonic acid on the rate of the mitochondrial succinate oxidase reaction controlled by the dicarboxylate carrier, was studied. These compounds were shown to act as competitive inhibitors of succinate transport and could interact with the carrier according to the 1:1 stoichiometry. The affinity of the inhibitor for the carrier increased in parallel with the increase in the alkyl residue length. This dependence was impaired only in the case of pentyl-, hexyl- and heptylmalonates having close values of inhibition constants. The data obtained suggest that the polar site and two hydrophobic regions are located in the vicinity of the carrier active site. The possible organization of the carrier substrate-binding site is discussed.
