Ubiquinone biosynthesis protein COQ9, mitochondrial, also known as coenzyme Q9 homolog (COQ9), is a
protein that in humans is encoded by the COQ9gene.[5]
Function
This locus represents a mitochondrial
ubiquinone biosynthesis gene. The encoded protein is likely necessary for biosynthesis of
coenzyme Q10, as mutations at this locus have been associated with autosomal-recessive neonatal-onset primary coenzyme Q10 deficiency.[5]
