HOQNO interaction with cytochrome b in succinate:menaquinone reductase from Bacillus subtilis
2-n-Heptyl4-hydroxyquinoline-N-oxide (HOQNO) inhibits the succinate:quinone oxidoreductase activity of isolated and membrane-bound succinate:menaquinone oxidoreductase of B. subtilis. The inhibition pattern resembles closely that observed for α-thenoyltrifluoroacetone and carboxins in the mitochondrial succinate:ubiquinone oxidoreductase: ca. 90% of the activity is highly sensitive to HOQNO (K i c
