Features of idebenone and related short-chain quinones that rescue ATP levels under conditions of impaired mitochondrial complex I. [PDF]
Short-chain quinones have been investigated as therapeutic molecules due to their ability to modulate cellular redox reactions, mitochondrial electron transfer and oxidative stress, which are pathologically altered in many mitochondrial and neuromuscular

A novel quinone: Quinone methide isomerase generates quinone methides in insect cuticle
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.

Generation of superoxide and singlet oxygen from α-tocopherolquinone and analogues. [PDF]
Three potential routes to generation of reactive oxygen species from a tocopherolquinone have been identified. The quinone of the water-soluble vitamin E analogue Trolox C (Trol-Q) is reduced by hydrated electron and isopropanol a hydroxyalkyl radical ...
