Notes:
Summary Coenzyme Q is primarily identified with its role in energy coupling where it is involved in the generation of a proton gradient across membranes to drive ATP formation. Its identification as a significant antioxidant throughout cellular membranes is developing. Its function in other membrane redox systems introduces new functions such as the generation of hydrogen peroxide related to cellular signal systems or the acidification of other organelles. A role in the control of cell growth and apoptosis has also been introduced.
