Ion mobility studies of Pyrroloquinoline Quinone Aza-Crown Ether-Lanthanide Complexes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Lanthanide-dependent enzymes and their biomimetic complexes have arisen as an interesting target of research in the last decade. These enzymes, specifically, pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ)-bearing methanol dehydrogenases, efficiently turn over alcohols ...

Effects of pyrroloquinoline quinone and imidazole pyrroloquinoline on biological activities and neural functions

open access: yesHeliyon, 2020
Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is contained in fruits and vegetables and in human breast milk. It has been reported that PQQ has high reactivity and changes to an imidazole structure (imidazole pyrroloquinoline) by a reaction with an amino acid at a high

Endophytic Biostimulant Pyrroloquinoline Quinone Enhances Banana Growth and Primes Immunity Against Fusarium Wilt. [PDF]

open access: yesPhysiol Plant
ABSTRACT Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is a redox cofactor derived from prokaryotes that participates in various biological processes involving dehydrogenase enzymes. Previous field trials identified a PQQ‐producing endophyte, Burkholderia seminalis 869T2, which enhances banana growth and reduces Fusarium wilt incidence from 24.5% to 3.4%.

Discovery of a eukaryotic pyrroloquinoline quinone-dependent oxidoreductase belonging to a new auxiliary activity family in the database of carbohydrate-active enzymes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is a redox cofactor utilized by a number of prokaryotic dehydrogenases. Not all prokaryotic organisms are capable of synthesizing PQQ, even though it plays important roles in the growth and development of many organisms ...

PQQ Supplementation and SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein-Induced Heart Inflammation

open access: yesNatural Product Communications, 2022
SARS-CoV-2 spike protein-induced heart inflammation may originate from either COVID-19 infection or the administration of COVID-19 mRNA vaccines. As pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is a scavenger of free radicals, redox cofactor, and antioxidant which ...

Escherichia coli is unable to produce pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) [PDF]

open access: yesMicrobiology, 1997
Many bacteria can synthesize the cofactor pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ), a cofactor of several dehydrogenases, including glucose dehydrogenase (GCD). Among the enteric bacteria, Klebsiella pneumoniae has been shown to contain the genes required for PQQ biosynthesis.

Crystal structure of a calcium(II)-pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) complex outside a protein environment. [PDF]

open access: yesActa Crystallogr C Struct Chem, 2020
Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is an important cofactor of calcium‐ and lanthanide‐dependent alcohol dehydrogenases, and has been known for over 30 years. Crystal structures of Ca–MDH enzymes (MDH is methanol dehydrogenase) have been known for some time;

Pyrroloquinoline-Quinone Is More Than an Antioxidant: A Vitamin-like Accessory Factor Important in Health and Disease Prevention

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is associated with biological processes such as mitochondriogenesis, reproduction, growth, and aging. In addition, PQQ attenuates clinically relevant dysfunctions (e.g., those associated with ischemia, inflammation and ...

Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is the organic cofactor in soybean lipoxygenase‐1 [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1988
Treatment of soybean lipoxygenase‐1 (SLO) with phenylhydrazine (PH) induced inactivation and a maximum (350 nm) in the absorption spectrum of the enzyme. To detach the product having this absorption maximum, proteolysis was required. The product appeared to be the C(5) phenylhydrazone of pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ).
