title: Identification of the quinone species in cyanide-sensitive and cyanide-insensitive mitochondria of Moniliella tomentosa.
abstract: Moniliella tomentosa was investigated for the presence of different quinones that might be involved in the cyanide-sensitive and/or cyanide-insensitive electron-transport pathways. The naturally occurring quinone in Moniliella tomentosa was found to be ubiquinone-45. Other quinone species could not be detected. The concentration of ubiquinone-45 in mitochondria is not related to the presence or absence of the alternative oxidase activity.
