FunctionComponent of the coenzyme Q biosynthetic pathway. May play a role in organizing a multi-subunit COQ enzyme complex required for coenzyme Q biosynthesis. Required for steady-state levels of other COQ polypeptides. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP- Rule:MF_03111, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18474229}.
PathwayCofactor biosynthesis; ubiquinone biosynthesis
SimilarityBelongs to the COQ4 family. {ECO:0000255|HAMAP- Rule:MF_03111}.
Subcellular LocationIsoform 1: Mitochondrion inner membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Matrix side.
SubunitComponent of a multi-subunit COQ enzyme complex, composed of at least COQ3, COQ4, COQ5, COQ6, COQ7 and COQ9
Tissue SpecificityExpressed ubiquitously, but at high levels in liver, lung and pancreas
