Quinone and non-quinone redox couples in Complex III [PDF]
The Q cycle mechanism proposed by Peter Mitchell in the 1970's explicitly considered the modification of ubiquinone two-electron redox properties upon binding to Complex III to match the thermodynamics of the other single-electron redox cofactors in the complex, and guide electron transfer to support the generation of a proton electro-chemical gradient

Tailoring the Properties of Functional Materials With N‐Oxides
The properties of materials bearing N‐oxide groups are often dominated by the polar N+─O− bond. It provides hydrophilicity, selective ion‐binding, electric conductivity, or antifouling properties. Many of the underlying mechanisms have only recently been discovered, and the interest in N‐oxide materials is rapidly growing.

Diffusion-controlled generation of a proton-motive force across a biomembrane [PDF]
Respiration in bacteria involves a sequence of energetically-coupled electron and proton transfers creating an electrochemical gradient of protons (a proton-motive force) across the inner bacterial membrane. With a simple kinetic model we analyze a redox

The pyrene and ether groups are incorporated into the covalent triazine polymer (CTP) structure. The synergistic effect of the two functional groups endows CTP with better electron transfer, light absorption, and oxygen activation properties. An impressive apparent quantum yield (13.2% @420 nm) and a remarkable solar‐to‐chemical conversion efficiency ...

2-(1,4-Dioxo-1,4-dihydro-2-naphthyl)-2-methylpropanoic acid [PDF]
The sterically crowded title compound, C₁₄H₁₂O₄, crystallizes as centrosymmetric hydrogen-bonded dimers involving the carboxyl groups. The naphthoquinone ring system is folded by 11.5 (1)° about a vector joining the 1,4-C atoms, and the quinone O atoms ...

Protein covalent modification by biologically active quinones [PDF]
The avarone/avarol quinone/hydroquinone couple shows considerable antitumor activity. In this work, covalent modification of b-lactoglobulin by avarone and its derivatives as well as by the synthetic steroidal quinone 2,5(10)-estradiene-1,4,17-trione and
