COQ2

This section covers mitochondrial function and how you convert nutrients into usable energy.

So COQ2, which affects your coenzyme Q10 requirement.

If you're on a statin and you feel exhausted, then this is one that's worth knowing, for example.

Your B vitamin conversion genes, whether the B12 in your multivitamin is the form that you can actually use, for example.

Or it can move into the other arm, making the quinone, quinones.

And to go into CoQ10 biosynthesis, a specific enzyme is going to be necessary, a CoQ2 reductase.

Now, remember the SC- SCARB1 receptor that is going to take in cholesterol from HDL.

When it's overexpressed, what happens inside those cells is cholesterol and CoQ10 both are involved in further regulating lipid metabolism.
