Malate

Malate: Malate (O⁻OC-CH₂-CH(OH)-COO⁻) is the ionized form of Malic Acid. It is an important chemical compound in biochemistry. In the C4 carbon fixation process, malate is a source of CO₂ in the Calvin cycle.

In the Citric Acid Cycle, (S)-malate is an intermediate formed by the addition of an -OH group on the si face of fumarate; it can also be formed from pyruvate via anaplerotic reactions. Malate dehydrogenase catalyzes the reversible conversion of malate into oxaloacetate using NAD as a cofactor.
