Succinic acid (C4H6O4), an essential dicarboxylic acid in living beings, has numerous roles in cellular functioning. It exists naturally as the anion succinate and functions as both a metabolic intermediate and a signaling molecule, delivering essential information about the metabolic state of cells in reaction to environmental changes. With a chemical formula of (CH2)2(CO2H)2 and a molecular weight of around 118.09 g/mol, succinic acid's adaptability within complex physiological regulatory networks significantly contributes to cellular homeostasis.
