Menaquinones are isoprenoid quinones of the naphthalene series and belongs to the K2 Vitamin homologs. Menaquinones were originally discovered as the anti-hemorrhagic factor and now encompasses a vari
ety of physiological processes.
Menaquinone 4 2,3-Epoxide is the expoxide metabolite of Menaquinone 6 (M21895) in human plasma. Menaquinone 4 has four isoprene residue in its side chain and is also c
ommonly refered to as menatetrenone. Menaquinone-4 is the most common type of vitamin K2 and is known as a hemostatic agent and is used as adjunctive therapy for the pain of osteoporosis. | [Uses]

The epoxide metabolite of Menaquinone 4 (M218595) in human plasma. | [Definition]
ChEBI: 2,3-epoxymenatetrenone is a member of the class of tetralins obtained by formal epoxidation across the 2,3-double bond of menatetrenone. It has a role as a human metabolite and a rat metabolite. It is an epoxide, a member of tetralins, a diketone, an aromatic ketone and an olefinic compound. It is functionally related to a menaquinone-4. |
