title: The inhibitory effect of halides and carboxylates on hepatic NADH: cytochrome b5 oxidoreductase.
abstract: The inhibitory effect of several halides and carboxylates on bovine liver microsomal NADH: cytochrome b5 oxidoreductase (EC 1.6.2.2) was examined. The magnitude of inhibition was altered by various anion species but not by cation species. The order of effectiveness was F- less than acetate less than Cl- less than Br- less than I- less than succinate congruent to citrate. The kinetics of these inhibitions was competitive with cytochrome b5, and non-competitive with NADH, indicating that these anions inhibit the interaction of the enzyme with cytochrome b5.
