Ubiquinone, also known as coenzyme Q, or Q, is a critical component of the electron transport pathways of both eukaryotes and prokaryotes (Jonassen and Clarke, 2000 [PubMed 10777520]).
This lipid consists of a hydrophobic isoprenoid tail and a quinone head group.
The tail varies in length depending on the organism, but its purpose is to anchor coenzyme Q to the membrane.
The quinone head group is responsible for the activity of coenzyme Q in the respiratory chain.
COQ3 is an O-methyltransferase required for 2 steps in the biosynthetic pathway of coenzyme Q.
This enzyme methylates an early coenzyme Q intermediate, 3,4-dihydroxy-5-polyprenylbenzoic acid, as well as the final intermediate in the pathway, converting demethyl-ubiquinone to coenzyme Q.
The COQ3 is also capable of methylating the distinct prokaryotic early intermediate 2-hydroxy-6-polyprenyl phenol.
