A representative continuous wave X-band EPR spectrum of K. pneumoniae PqqE samples in various conditions. The signals are as follows, from top to bottom: dithionite (DTH)-reduced PqqE with a 10-fold excess of SAM (with and without glycerol), DTH-reduced PqqE (with and without glycerol), and as-isolated PqqE with glycerol.
