A Molecular Mechanics Model for Flavins
Flavin containing molecules form a group of important cofactors that assist a wide range of enzymatic reactions. Flavins use the redox‐active isoalloxazine system, which is capable of one‐ and two‐electron transfer reactions and can exist in several ...

Increased liver content of DHA‐derived small lipid autacoids (i.e resolvin D1 and maresin 1) associates with enhanced mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, fatty acid β‐oxidation and bioenergetic metabolic flux. These features provide hepatic protection from steatotic, pro‐inflammatory and fibrogenic insults.

Crystal structure of the yellow 1:2 molecular complex lumiflavin–bisnaphthalene-2,3-diol [PDF]
In the first molecular complex of the physiologically active neutral form of isoalloxazine studied, lumiflavin–bisnaphthalene-2,3-diol, each flavin is sandwiched between two naphthalenediol molecules with extensive overlap but a moderately large (3·44 Å)

Two Modes of Riboflavin-Mediated Extracellular Electron Transfer in Geobacter uraniireducens
Anaerobes respire extracellular electron acceptors by extracellular electron transfer (EET). It is widely recognized that flavins can act as electron shuttles to facilitate this process. Flavin synthesis genes are widely distributed in Geobacter species.
