Disease

COQ8A_HUMAN Autosomal recessive ataxia due to ubiquinone deficiency. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Function

COQ8A_HUMAN Atypical kinase involved in the biosynthesis of coenzyme Q, also named ubiquinone, an essential lipid-soluble electron transporter for aerobic cellular respiration (PubMed:25498144, PubMed:21296186, PubMed:25540914, PubMed:27499294). Its substrate specificity is unclear: does not show any protein kinase activity (PubMed:25498144, PubMed:27499294). Probably acts as a small molecule kinase, possibly a lipid kinase that phosphorylates a prenyl lipid in the ubiquinone biosynthesis pathway, as suggested by its ability to bind coenzyme Q lipid intermediates (PubMed:25498144, PubMed:27499294). Shows an unusual selectivity for binding ADP over ATP (PubMed:25498144).^[1] ^[2] ^[3] ^[4]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

Small-molecule tools have enabled mechanistic investigations and therapeutic targeting of the protein kinase-like (PKL) superfamily. However, such tools are still lacking for many PKL members, including the highly conserved and disease-related UbiB family. Here, we sought to develop and characterize an inhibitor for the archetypal UbiB member COQ8, whose function is essential for coenzyme Q (CoQ) biosynthesis. Guided by crystallography, activity assays and cellular CoQ measurements, we repurposed the 4-anilinoquinoline scaffold to selectively inhibit human COQ8A in cells. Our chemical tool promises to lend mechanistic insights into the activities of these widespread and understudied proteins and to offer potential therapeutic strategies for human diseases connected to their dysfunction.
