biological activity. In particular, the reduction potentials of the calothrixins and some related quinones were measured electrochemically. Our studies indicate that while there is no direct correlation between the reduction potentials and biological activities of the studied compounds, in all cases quinones with EC(50) values <1.6 microM undergo reduction to their respective semiquinones readily, with
