A novel quinone: Quinone methide isomerase generates quinone methides in insect cuticle
FEBS Letters, 1988 Insoluble cuticle‐bound enzyme(s) of Manduca sexta pharate pupae, which is known to convert N‐acetyldopamine to N‐acetylnorepinephrine through the intermediate formation of quinone methide, also converted exogenously supplied N‐acetyldopamine quinone to N‐acetylnorepinephrine.

Phenolic signals for prehaustorium formation in Striga hermonthica
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Striga hermonthica is a root parasitic plant that causes considerable crop yield losses. To parasitize host plants, parasitic plants develop a specialized organ called the haustorium that functions in host invasion and nutrient absorption. The initiation

Quinone Reductase 2 Is a Catechol Quinone Reductase [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2008 The functions of quinone reductase 2 have eluded researchers for decades even though a genetic polymorphism is associated with various neurological disorders. Employing enzymatic studies using adrenochrome as a substrate, we show that quinone reductase 2 is specific for the reduction of adrenochrome, whereas quinone reductase 1 shows no activity.
