Metabolite Identification
Common NameUbiquinone 6
DescriptionUbiquinone-6, also known as coenzyme Q6 or COQ6, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as ubiquinones. These are coenzyme Q derivatives containing a 5, 6-dimethoxy-3-methyl(1,4-benzoquinone) moiety to which an isoprenyl group is attached at ring position 2(or 6). Thus, ubiquinone-6 is considered to be a quinone lipid molecule. Ubiquinone-6 is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral.
