| Research Abstract |
Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ), a redox cofactor for bacterial dehydrogenases, has been implicated to be an important nutrient or vitamin in mammals functioning. In the present study, to investigate the potential of PQQ as vitamin, we searched for PQQ-binding protein in mouse NIH3T3 fibroblasts. We found cytoskeletal proteins, heat shock protein families, carbohydrate metabolic enzyme, and glycolytic enzyme as novel PQQ-binding proteins.
