DOI: 10.1007/s00018-017-2615-9
Abstract: Melatonin protects the electron transport chain (ETC) in multiple ways. It reduces levels of ·NO by downregulating inducible and inhibiting neuronal nitric oxide synthases (iNOS, nNOS), thereby preventing excessive levels of peroxynitrite. Both ·NO and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jmb.2018.09.016
Abstract: Mitochondrial function depends on the correct synthesis, transport, and assembly of proteins and cofactors of the electron transport chain. The initial idea that the respiratory chain protein complexes (RCCs) were independent structures in the inner… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.jnatprod.4c00714
Abstract: Rubrolides are a family of naturally occurring 5-benzylidenebutenolides, which generally contain brominated phenol groups, and nearly half of them also present a chlorine attached to the butenolide core. Seven natural rubrolides were previously synthesized. When… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/mmi.15049
Abstract: Phenazines are redox‐active secondary metabolites produced by diverse bacteria including the opportunistic pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Extracellular electron transfer via phenazines enhances anaerobic survival by serving as an electron sink for glucose catabolism. However, the specific… read more here.
