CoQ4

Description:
CoQ4, also known as ubiquinone-4, is a naturally occurring compound that plays a crucial role in the electron transport chain within cellular respiration. It is a type of coenzyme Q, which is essential for the production of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) in mitochondria. CoQ4 is characterized by its lipid-soluble nature, allowing it to integrate into the mitochondrial membrane, where it facilitates the transfer of electrons between various enzyme complexes. The structure of CoQ4 includes a quinone ring and a long isoprenoid side chain, which contributes to its hydrophobic properties. This compound is involved in antioxidant activity, helping to neutralize free radicals and protect cells from oxidative stress. Additionally, CoQ4 is studied for its potential therapeutic applications in various health conditions, including cardiovascular diseases and neurodegenerative disorders. Its CAS number, 4370-62-1, is a unique identifier used for regulatory and research purposes, ensuring precise communication about this specific chemical substance.
