Malate dehydrogenase 2 NAD (mitochondrial) also known as MDH2 is a protein which in humans is encoded by the MDH2 gene.Malate dehydrogenase catalyzes the reversible oxidation of malate to oxaloacetate utilizing the NAD/NADH cofactor system in the citric acid cycle. The protein encoded by this gene is localized to the mitochondria and may play pivotal roles in the malate-aspartate shuttle that operates in the metabolic coordination between cytosol and mitochondria.
