Characterization of Arabidopsis thaliana Coq9 in the CoQ Biosynthetic Pathway
Coenzyme Q, also known as ubiquinone, is a fat-soluble isoprene quinone that serves as a cofactor for numerous enzymes across all domains of life.However, the biosynthetic pathway for this important molecule in plants has been examined in only a limited number of studies.In yeast and mammals, Coq9, an isoprenoid-lipid-binding protein, is essential
