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). {ECO:0000250}.
PathwayCofactor biosynthesis; ubiquinone biosynthesis.
Sequence CautionSequence=BAB26064.1; Type=Erroneous termination; Positions=303; Note=Translated as Tyr.; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
SimilarityBelongs to the UbiA prenyltransferase family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationMitochondrion membrane {ECO:0000250}; Multi- pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}.
