2-methoxy-6-polyprenyl-1,4-benzoquinol methylase (COQ5) catalyses the C-methyltransferase conversion of 2-methoxy-6-decaprenyl-1,4-benzoquinol (MDMQ10H2) to 6-methoxy-3-methyl-2-decaprenyl-1,4-benzoquinol (DMQ10H2). The monomer, while localized in the mitochondrial matrix, is part of a multimeric complex residing in the mitochondrial inner membrane (Chen et al., 2013; Nguyen et al., 2015; Yen et al., 2016). This reaction was first studied in yeast (Barkovich et al. 1997).
