摘要
A procedure was developed to isolate fractions enriched in plasma membrane from Caenorhabditis elegans. Coenzyme Q(9) (Q(9)) was found in plasma membrane isolated from either wild-type or long-lived qm30 and qm51 clk-1 mutant strains of Caenorhabditis elegans, along with dietary coenzyme Q(8) (Q(8)) and the biosynthetic intermediate demethoxy-Q(9) (DMQ(9)). NADH was able to reduce both Q(8) and Q(9), but not DMQ(9). Our results indicate that DMQ(9) cannot achieve the same redox role of Q(9) in plasma membrane, suggesting that proportion of all these Q isoforms in plasma membrane must be an important factor in establishing the clk-1 mutant phenotype.
