Description
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. Consequently, for animals and humans, there has been constant exposure to PQQ. In animals, PQQ is reported to participate in a range of biological functions with apparent survival benefits (e.g., improved neonatal growth and reproductive performance). There are also benefits from PQQ supplementation related to cognitive, immune, and antioxidant functions, as well as protection from cardiac and neurological ischemic events. Although PQQ is not currently viewed as a vitamin, its involvement in cell signaling pathways, particularly those important to mitochondriogenesis in experimental animal models, may eventually provide a rationale for defining PQQ as vital to life. For humans, such evidence suggests there may be similar parallels or benefits from improving PQQ status.
Uses
Pyrroloquinoline quinone is an important growth factor for the body and a redox/cofactor found in a a class of enzymes called quinoproteins. It is a cofactor of microbial quinoprotein enzyme, and imidazopyrroline. it regulates the level of free radicals in the body, protects the body; anti-oxidative damage; enhances mitochondrial function; detoxification; disease, etc.
Application
Pyrroloquinoline quinone has been used:as a component of nanocurcumin formulation (NCF), to study its therapeutic effect on ameliorate hypoxia-induced stress in hypertrophied cardiomyocytes.as a standard in fluorescence analysis.to test its efficiency in suppressing restrained oxidative stress and hepatic fibrogenesis in mouse models.Pyrroloquinoline quinone(PQQ) has been reported to function as a water soluble vitamin/cofactor and as an antioxidant. PQQ disodium salt is proposed for use due to its nutritive value in the United States (U.S.) in foods, such as energy, sport, and isotonic drinks; non-milk based meal replacement beverages; water (bottled, enhanced, fortified); milk-based meal replacement beverages; cereal and granola bars; and energy, meal replacement, and fortified bars. PQQ is also intended for use in dietary supplements.
General Description
Pyrroloquinoline Quinone (PQQ), also referred as methoxatin, is a water soluble orthoquinone molecule with redox-cycling ability.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Pyrroloquinoline Quinone (PQQ) plays a vital role in gluconic acid production and biosynthesis by microbes. It acts as an effective microbial growth stimulant and biological control determinant for plant pathogens. PQQ also acts as an anti-melanogenic agent and is used to treat disorders related to hyper pigmentation. It exhibits diverse role in metabolism and cell signaling pathways. PQQ is used as a potential therapeutic to treat liver fibrosis.
Purification Methods
Efflorescent yellow-orange needles of PQQ are formed on recrystallising from H2O by addition of Me2CO, or better from a supersaturated aqueous solution, as it forms an acetone adduct. [Forrest et al. Nature 280 843 1979.] It has also been purified by passage through a C-18 reverse phase silica cartridge or a silanized silica gel column in aqueous solution whereby methoxantin remains behind as a red-orange band at the origin. This band is collected and washed thoroughly with dilute aqueous HCl (pH 2) and is then eluted with MeOH/H2O (7:3) and evaporated in vacuo to give the coenzyme as a red solid. It has also been purified by dissolving it in aqueous 0.5M K2CO3 and acidified to pH 2.5 whereby PQQ precipitates as a deep red solid which is collected and dried in vacuo. Methoxantin elutes at 3.55 retention volumes from a C18 _Bondapak column using H2O/MeOH (95:5) + 0.1% AcOH pH 4.5. It has UV max at 247 and 330nm (shoulder at 270nm) in H2O and max at 250 and 340nm in H2O at pH 2.5. With excitation at ex 365nm it has a max emission at 483nm. The 13C NMR has : 113.86, 122.76, 125.97, 127.71, 130.68, 137.60, 144.63, 146.41, 147.62, 161.25, 165.48, 166.45, 173.30 and 180.00ppm. When a solution in 10% aqueous MeCO is adjusted to pH 9 with aqueous NH3 and kept at 25o for 30minutes, the acetone adduct is formed; UV has max at 250, 317 and 360nm (H2O, pH 5.5), and with ex at 360nm it has max fluorescence at max at 465nm; and the 13C NMR [(CD3)2SO, TMS] has : 29.77, 51.06, 74.82, 111.96, 120.75, 121.13, 125.59, 126.88, 135.21, 139.19, 144.92, 161.01, 161.47, 165.17, 168.61, 190.16 and 207.03ppm. It also forms a methanol adduct. When it is reacted with Me2SO4/K2CO3 in dry Me2NCHO at 80o for 4hours, it forms the trimethyl ester which has m 265-267o(dec) [260-263o(dec) also reported] after recrystallisation from hot MeCN (orange crystals) with UV max at 252 and 344nm (H2O) and 251, 321 and 373nm (in MeOH; MeOH adduct ).

Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 72909-34-3 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 7,2,9,0 and 9 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 3 and 4 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 72909-34:
(7*7)+(6*2)+(5*9)+(4*0)+(3*9)+(2*3)+(1*4)=143
143 % 10 = 3
So 72909-34-3 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

Reaction of Reduced PQQ (PQQH2) and Molecular Oxygen
Itoh, Shinobu,Ohshiro, Yoshiki,Agawa, Toshio
, p. 1911 - 1914 (1986)
Reduced PQQ (PQQH2) is prepared by the reaction of PQQ with thiophenol, 1-benzyl-1,4-dihydronicotinamide (BNAH), sodium dithionite, or sodium borohydride.Oxidation of PQQH2 to PQQ by molecular oxygen in aqueous solutions is investigated kinetically.The oxidation is accelerated gradually with proceeding of the reaction, which may be attributed to the side reaction of PQQH2 and H2O2 produced by the reaction of PQQH2 and O2.As in fact, the yield of H2O2 is found to be 50percent based on PQQH2.Initial rate is first-order in oxygen concentration.The pH-rate profile suggests that an active species in the reaction is PQQH-.Autocatalysis of O2-. and PQQ itself is scarcely detected in this reaction.The mechanism of the oxidation is also discussed.

A comparative study of van der Waals and ionic crystals can provide vital information for the medical and food industries. In this work, we investigated the coenzyme pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ), which contains three carboxyl groups coupled to imidazole, pyridine, and quinone. Whole-crystal analysis (crystal-ome) was attempted for NanPQQ (n = 0-4) crystals. All deprotonation sites were found to be dependent on pKa except for the Na sites, which cannot be explained by pKa. The Na1PQQ crystal exhibited an unusual ionic bond, forming COOH-Na+ at one of the carboxyl sites in the structure. The difference in the solubility of the van der Waals and ionic crystals was also investigated, with a focus on the dissolution processes of Na0PQQ and Na2PQQ, by combining molecular dynamics simulations with experiments that define the crystal surfaces. This study is the first step toward developing a general rule to link the different types of crystal structures with different dissolution mechanisms and rates.
Multistep, eight-electron oxidation catalyzed by the cofactorless oxidase, PqqC: Identification of chemical intermediates and their dependence on molecular oxygen
Bonnot, Florence,Iavarone, Anthony T.,Klinman, Judith P.
, p. 4667 - 4675 (2013)
The final step of the biosynthesis of prokaryotic cofactor PQQ is catalyzed by PqqC, a cofactorless oxidase that brings about a ring closure and overall eight-electron oxidation of its substrate. Time-dependent acid quenching and subsequent high-performance liquid chromatography separation and mass spectrometric analyses of reaction mixtures were performed to correlate the structures of intermediates with previously observed UV-visible signatures. The reaction is composed of four stepwise oxidations: three steps use O2 as the two-electron acceptor, and the fourth uses hydrogen peroxide (H 2O2). The chemical nature of the intermediates, the stoichiometry of the reaction, and their dependence on the oxygen concentration indicate that the third oxidation uses the product, H2O2, from the preceding step to produce water. The last oxidation step can also be studied separately and is a reaction between O2 and PQQH2 trapped in the active site. This oxidation is approximately 10 times slower than the reoxidation of PQQH2 in solution. From the order of the four oxidation steps and their sensitivity to O2 concentration, we propose a progressive closure of the active site as the enzyme proceeds through its catalytic cycle.
