AG° = +29 kJ mol¯¹ (+7 kcal mol¯¹) Malate + NAD+ = oxaloacetate + NADH + H+ The reaction proceeds readily under physiological conditions. Why does the reaction proceed readily as written under physiological conditions? Endergonic reactions such as this occur spontaneously without the input of free energy. The steady-state concentrations of the products are low compared with those of the substrates. The reaction is pushed forward by the energetically favorable oxidation of fumarate to malate. O The NADH produced during glycolysis drives the reaction in the direction of malate oxidation.
