methylviologen

DNP-INT is a quinone analog that inhibits electron transport in plants by competitively inhibiting plastoquinol oxidation by binding at the Qo site of cytochrome b6f (Kd = 1.4 nM). It inhibits electron flow from water to NADP or methylviologen by 50 and 100% when used at concentrations of 0.5 or 5 μM, respectively.

Cucurbit[8]uril is a highly effective and safe supramolecular compound that promotes protein heterodimerization. It selectively induces the heterodimerization of methylviologen and naphthalene functionalized proteins, demonstrating its specificity and versatility. Additionally, Cucurbit[8]uril shows exceptional oral activity and low toxicity, making it a promising candidate for various pharmaceutical and biotechnological applications.
