Comments
Comment typeDescription
Catalytic ActivityA polyprenyl diphosphate + 4-hydroxybenzoate = diphosphate + a 4-hydroxy-3-polyprenylbenzoate.
FunctionCatalyzes the prenylation of para-hydroxybenzoate (PHB) with an all-trans polyprenyl group. Mediates the second step in the final reaction sequence of coenzyme Q (CoQ) biosynthesis, which is the condensation of the polyisoprenoid side chain with PHB (By similarity)
PathwayCofactor biosynthesis; ubiquinone biosynthesis.
SimilarityBelongs to the UbiA prenyltransferase family
Subcellular LocationMitochondrion membrane ; Multi- pass membrane protein .
