Question
The image below shows ubiquinone. Shaded in yellow is the isoprenoid side chain, which remains
unchanged during the electron transport chain. Despite this, what function does it serve?
CH3
(CH₂-CH=C-CH₂) 10-H
H3CO
H3CO
I
DOO
CH3
--
Select one:
a. It is hydrophobic, allowing the molecule to be lipid-soluble so that it can diffuse through the membrane between complexe.
b. It is hydrophilic, allowing the molecule to be water-soluble and diffuse in the intermembrane space between complexes
C. It is hydrophobic, allowing successive molecules to cluster together at complex I
d. It is hydrophilic, allowing optimal interaction in the matrix with NADH at complex I
