A Correction on: Ishibashi T, Harunari E, Ishihara G, Niiyama T, Noda-Urata M and Komori N (2025) Superoxide-and semiquinone-linked activation of molecular hydrogen in metal-catalystfree solution. Front. Mol. Biosci. 12:1680812. doi: 10.3389/fmolb.2025.1680812 In the abstract, the term "SQ radicals" was erroneously used instead of "semiquinone radicals (Q•⁻)". This has been corrected to read: "Here we show that under membrane-less in-solution conditions, H 2 modulates O 2 • - kinetics in ways consistent with a tunneling-assisted electron transfer involving semiquinone radicals (Q•⁻), without catalytic metals or hydrogenases". The original version of this article has been updated.
Keywords: H2 activation, mitochondrial complex I and III, Molecular hydrogen, quantum biology, quantum tunneling, Reverse electron transport, Semiquinone, superoxide
