SMILES: O=C1C(C)=C(C/C=C(C)/CC/C=C(C)/CC/C=C(C)/CC/C=C(C)/CC/C=C(C)/CC/C=C(C)/CC/C=C(C)/CC/C=C(C)/CC/C=C(C)\C)C(C2=C1C=CC=C2)=O
Biological Activity: Menaquinone 9 is a naphthoquinone-type vitamin K and electron transport component produced by bacteria. Menaquinone 9 is an orally active analog of Vitamin K2 (HY-109569). Menaquinone 9 acts as an ultraviolet-sensitive, photooxidizable substrate that generates more polar photodegradation products under oxygen and ultraviolet irradiation. Menaquinone 9 binds to the αβ dimer of Escherichia coli nitrate reductase, supporting electron transport within the αβ subunit structure of the enzyme. Menaquinone 9 serves as a precursor for bone Menaquinone-4 (HY-B2156). Menaquinone 9 can be used in studies related to metabolic diseases[1][2].
