Pyrroloquinoline Quinone as Cofactor in Galactose Oxidase
Galactose oxidase from Dactylium dendroides was shown to contain one molecule of covalently bound pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ)/enzyme molecule. From the spectroscopic characteristics reported for the enzyme forms, a mechanistic role for PQQ could be deduced. In analogy with other quinoproteins, the initial formation of a PQQ-substrate adduct is proposed. Following internal hydrogen transfer, ...

متن کاملProduction and Radioprotective Effects of Pyrroloquinoline Quinone
Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) was produced by fermentation of the Methylovorus sp. MP688 strain and purified by ion-exchange chromatography, crystallization and recrystallization. The yield of PQQ reached approximately 125 mg/L and highly pure PQQ was obtained. To determine the optimum dose of PQQ for radioprotection, three doses (2 mg/kg, 4 mg/kg, 8 mg/kg) of PQQ were orally administrated to ...
متن کاملFactors relevant in bacterial pyrroloquinoline quinone production.
Quinoprotein content and levels of external pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) were determined for several bacteria under a variety of growth conditions. From these data and those from the literature, a number of factors can be indicated which are relevant for PQQ production. Synthesis of PQQ is only started if synthesis of a quinoprotein occurs, but quinoprotein synthesis does not depend on PQQ sy...
متن کاملPotential physiological importance of pyrroloquinoline quinone.
Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) is a novel biofactor for which a proposition can be made for physiological importance. PQQ was first recognized as an enzyme cofactor in bacteria. It has recently been tentatively identified as a component of interstellar dust. Thus, PQQ may have been present throughout early biological conception and evolution. PQQ is also a potent plant growth factor. Consequent...
