We would like to thank the scientists across the world who characterize quinones in newly described species and publish their work e.g. in IJSEM from @microbiologysociety.org, Antonie van Leeuwenhoek, Archives of Microbiology and Systematic and Applied Microbiology. Quinones rock! 🤩 5/5

...and after the study brilliantly conducted by Dr. Chobert on the dynamics of the quinone repertoire in Pseudomonadota that accompanied their metabolic diversification, also published earlier this year in the ISME Journal from @isme-microbes.bsky.social. 4/5

This much-needed compendium of quinones in bacteria is the last chapter of S. Chobert's PhD thesis. This comes after the discovery of a high potential quinone, the methylplastoquinone, led by @lipidorama.bsky.social and colleagues published earlier in @pnas.org... 3/5

Among other discoveries, we show that the two menaquinone pathways tend to replace one another frequently, and that a lineage outside of Pseudomonadota unexpectedly show the potential to produce ubiquinone, a high redox potential usually found in Pseudomonadota and Eukaryota. 2/5
