Abstract excerpt
Coenzyme Q (CoQ) is a redox-active lipid molecule that acts as an electron carrier in the mitochondrial electron transport chain. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, CoQ is synthesized in the mitochondrial matrix by a multisubunit protein-lipid complex termed the CoQ synthome, the spatial positioning of which is coordinated by the endoplasmic reticulum-mitochondria encounter structure (ERMES). The MDM12 gene encoding...
