''Succinate'' – The binding site for succinate, in which the stereospecific dehydrogenation of succinate to fumarate is catalyzed, is located entirely on SdhA. Residues Thr254, His354, and Arg399 stabilize the substrate with hydrogen bonding, while FAD removes the electrons and carries them to the first iron-sulfur cluster, 2Fe-2S, of SdhB <ref>PMID:235539</ref>. During this transfer, FAD is reduced to FADH2 [7]. | ''Succinate'' – The binding site for succinate, in which the stereospecific dehydrogenation of succinate to fumarate is catalyzed, is located entirely on SdhA.

''Ubiquinone'' – The binding site for ubiquinone, in which the substrate is reduced to ubiquinol, is bordered by subunits B, C, and D. Residues His207 of SdhB, Ser27 and Arg31 of SdhC, and Tyr83 of SdhD stabilize ubiquinone, while residues Pro160, Trp163, Trp164, and Ile209 of SdhB and Ser27 and Ile28 of SdhC provide the necessary hydrophobic environment that stabilizes the ring | ''Ubiquinone'' – The binding site for ubiquinone, in which the substrate is reduced to ubiquinol, is bordered by subunits B, C, and D.
