2-methoxy-6-polyprenyl-1,4-benzoquinol methylase, mitochondrial (COQ5) catalyses the C-methyltransferase conversion of 2-methoxy-6-decaprenyl-1,4-benzoquinol (MDMQ10H2) to 6-methoxy-3-methyl-2-decaprenyl-1,4-benzoquinol (DMQ10H2). This reaction is inferred from the equivalent reaction in yeast (Barkovich et al. 1997).
