| Abstract | With the support of the Chemistry of Life Processes Program in the Division of Chemistry, Debbie C. Crans, Dean C. Crick, and Adam Chicco from Colorado State University will study the utilization of lipoquinone by electron transport systems. Lipoquinones are molecules that contain a redox active head group and a long lipid-like tail. These two molecular components confer biologically essential properties upon lipoquinones, namely the ability to transport electrons and protons between different b |
