Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ)

Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ), also called methoxatin, is a redox cofactor and antioxidant.[1] It is found in soil and foods such as kiwifruit, as well as human breast milk.[2] Enzymes containing PQQ are called quinoproteins. Glucose dehydrogenase, one of the quinoproteins, is used as a glucose sensor. PQQ stimulates growth in bacteria.[3] It is claimed that PQQ taken as a dietary supplement may promote mitochondrial biogenesis.
