Oxaloacetic Acid substrate for malate dehydrogenase and oxaloacetate decarboxylase. Oxaloacetic Acid is an inhibitor of SDH. Oxaloacetic acid plays a role as a metabolic intermediate in various biochemical pathways, including the citric acid cycle, gluconeogenesis, the urea cycle, the glyoxylate cycle, amino acid synthesis, and fatty acid synthesis. Additionally, it exhibits a strong affinity for binding metal ions such as copper, zinc, and iron, forming stable chelates with these metals.
