A simple system for aerobic assay of the quinol-fumarate reductase reaction catalyzed by purified soluble bovine heart succinate-ubiquinone reductase in the presence of NADH, NAD(P)H-quinone reductase (DT-diaphorase) and an appropriate quinone is described. The reaction is inhibited by carboxin, suggesting that the same quinone/quinol binding site is involved in electron transfer from succinate to ubiquinone and from ubiquinol to fumarate. The kinetic properties of the reaction in both directions and comparative affinities of the substrate binding sites of the enzyme to substrates (products) and competitive inhibitors are reported.
