The substrate (l-malate) gradient created in a microfluidic channel induced the directional diffusion of mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase (mMDH) toward a higher concentration region and in situ generation of an intermediate (OAA) gradient enhanced the co-diffusion of citrate synthase (CS) together with mMDH.

Porcine mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.37) dissociates into subunits on dilution. The enzyme monomer caused large increases in the surface pressure of monolayers of 1:1 phosphatidylserine/phosphatidylcholine at air/water and oil/water interfaces. The monomer increased the permeability of phospholipid vesicles to 22Na+. Both effects were significantly greater than the corresponding effects of ribonuclease A, cytochrome c and the dimeric form of malate dehydrogenase. Changes in the circular-dichroism spectra of the enzyme indicated that conformational changes may be associated with dimer formation or when monomer interacts with lysophosphatidyl-choline. Similar interactions to those described may occur in situ when mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase is transported to the mitochondrial matrix from its site of synthesis on cytosolic ribosomes.
