The isoprenoid chain of ubiquinone (coenzyme Q) varies in length between species and is determined by trans-polyprenyl diphosphate synthase.
Humans possess a heterotetrameric decaprenyl diphosphate synthase composed of DPS1 (PDSS1; MIM 607429) and DLP1 (PDSS2) that produces Q10 ubiquinone.The isoprenoid chain of ubiquinone (coenzyme Q) varies in length between species and is determined by trans-polyprenyl diphosphate synthase.
