Disease relevance of Decyl-ubiquinone

The activities of NAD+-photoreduction and NADH/decyl-ubiquinone reductase in membrane preparations of Rhodobacter capsulatus changed to the same extent under different conditions [1].

High impact information on Decyl-ubiquinone

Both probes competed for the binding site of 2,3-dimethoxy-5-methyl-6-decyl-1,4-benzoquinone (DB), an analogue of CoQ [2].
We have shown that the rate of NADH-coenzyme Q reductase in rat liver mitochondria, assayed using the decyl-ubiquinone analog DB, is underevaluated, probably as a result of its low water solubility [3].
