1 NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase (NQO1) and dihydronicotinamide riboside:quinone oxidoreductases (NQO2) are cytosolic flavoproteins that catalyze the two-electron reduction of quinones and quinoid compounds to hydroquinones, thereby promoting detoxification and preventing the formation of highly reactive oxygen species, which lead to DNA and cell damage. Hydroquinones NAD(P)H quinone dehydrogenase 1 Homo sapiens
