General description

2,5-Di-tert-butyl-1,4-benzoquinone (DTBBQ) is an 2,5-disubstituted quinone. It is an antibacterial compound. It has been isolated from marine Streptomyces sp. VITVSK1. Pressure dependance on the intramolecular and intermolecular migration rates of Na+ and K+ in a 2,5-di-tert-butyl-1,4-benzoquinone ion pair have been evaluated by using a high-pressure EPR technique.

We characterized the interaction of 2,5-di(tert-butyl)-1,4-benzohydroquinone (tBuBHQ) with the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+)-ATPase from rabbit fast-twitch skeletal and canine cardiac muscles by examining the effect of this agent on the ATPase reaction. tBuBHQ at less than 10 microM inhibited ATP
