| Precautions | COQ9 Antibody (Center) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
| Name | COQ9 (HGNC:25302) |
|---|---|
| Synonyms | C16orf49 |
| Function | Membrane-associated protein that warps the membrane surface to access and bind aromatic isoprenes with high specificity, including ubiquinone (CoQ) isoprene intermediates and presents them directly to COQ7, therefore facilitating the COQ7-mediated hydroxylase step (PubMed:25339443, PubMed:30661980, PubMed:38425362). Participates in the biosynthesis of coenzyme Q, also named ubiquinone, an essential lipid-soluble electron transporter for aerobic cellular respiration (PubMed:25339443, PubMed:30661980). |
| Cellular Location | Mitochondrion {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q8K1Z0}. Note=Associates with cardiolipin-rich membranes which leads to the lipid bilayer deformation and then accessing to membrane-bound lipids |

Background
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10), or ubiquinone, is a mobile lipophilic electron carrier critical for electron transfer by the mitochondrial inner membrane respiratory chain. COQ9 is 1 of several enzymes involved in biosynthesis of CoQ10 and likely functions in modification of the benzoquinone ring.

Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.
