Uniprot Description
Atypical kinase involved in the biosynthesis of coenzyme Q, also named ubiquinone, an essential lipid-soluble electron transporter for aerobic cellular respiration (PubMed:27499294). Affects the molecular organization and function of COQ3, possibly through kinase activity towards COQ3, COQ5 and/or COQ7 (PubMed:11279158, PubMed:15063807, PubMed:1648478, PubMed:18801050, PubMed:19002377, PubMed:21296186, PubMed:9210471, PubMed:9266513, PubMed:25498144). Its substrate specificity is unclear: does not show any protein kinase activity (PubMed:27499294). Probably acts as a small molecule kinase, possibly a lipid kinase that phosphorylates a prenyl lipid in the ubiquinone biosynthesis pathway, as suggested by its ability to bind coenzyme Q lipid intermediates ().

It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of
"Probable serine/threonine-protein kinase COQ8, mitochondrial (COQ8), Recombinant Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of
the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always
suggest centrifuging these vials
to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to
opening. Please be advised that
certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an
additional dry ice fee may also be
required.
