Mechanism summary

Mode of action: ENERGY_METABOLISM_INHIBITION host shared target — Assigned from ChEBI role CHEBI:83072 (EC 1.3.5.1 [succinate dehydrogenase (quinone)] inhibitor). ChEBI asserts the role on the compound. The target it names is one the host has too, so the mechanism is true but is not evidence of selectivity — see mode_of_action_target_scope. Not a curator's mechanistic review.
