Methods for Expression, Purification, and Characterization of PqqE, a Radical SAM Enzyme in the PQQ Biosynthetic Pathway

open access: yesMethods in Enzymology, 2018
PqqE is the first enzyme in the biosynthetic pathway of the redox cofactor pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ), catalyzing the formation of a carbon–carbon bond in the precursor peptide PqqA.

A Metal–Organic Hybrid Composed of Dual Quenching Cofactors as a Nanoquencher for the Fluorescent Determination of Protease Caspase-3

open access: yesBiosensors
Nanoquenchers with a single quenching cofactor exhibit limited fluorescence quenching efficiency. In this work, a metal–organic hybrid with dual quenching cofactors (Cu2+ and pyrroloquinoline quinone or PQQ) was prepared by metal-coordinated assembly and

Characteristic Reaction Mode of Cofactor PQQ toward Nucleophiles

open access: yesCharacteristic Reaction Mode of Cofactor PQQ toward Nucleophiles
[Abstract] The characteristic reaction mode of coenzyme PQQ toward nucleophiles such as alcohols, amines, and hydrazines are surveyed. The selectivity of addition position of nucleophiles to the carbonyl group of PQQ was affected by reaction conditions and substituents of nucleophiles. Reaction mechanisms were discussed.

Substituted Quinoline Quinones as Surrogates for the PQQ Cofactor: An Electrochemical and Computational Study

Organic Letters, 2015
Pyrroloquinoline quinones (PQQ) are important cofactors that shuttle redox equivalents in diverse metalloproteins. Quinoline 7,8-quinones have been synthesized and characterized as surrogates for PQQ to elucidate redox energetics within metalloenzyme active sites.

C-4 and C-5 adducts of cofactor PQQ (pyrroloquinolinequinone). Model studies directed toward the action of quinoprotein methanol dehydrogenase

Journal of the American Chemical Society, 1993
Methanol addition to the trimethyl ester of cofactor PQQ (PQQTME) was investigated in detail to obtain information on the action of quinoprotein methanol dehydrogenase. The hemiacetal-type adduct was easily isolated from a methanol solution of PQQTME.
