Alternate namesdecaprenyl-diphosphate synthase subunit 2; all-trans-decaprenyl-diphosphate synthase subunit 2; decaprenyl pyrophosphate synthase subunit 2; decaprenyl pyrophosphate synthetase subunit 2; subunit 2 of decaprenyl diphosphate synthase;
Chromosome6

EC Number2.5.1.91
SummaryThe protein encoded by this gene is an enzyme that synthesizes the prenyl side-chain of coenzyme Q, or ubiquinone, one of the key elements in the respiratory chain. The gene product catalyzes the formation of all trans-polyprenyl pyrophosphates from isopentyl diphosphate in the assembly of polyisoprenoid side chains, the first step in coenzyme Q biosynthesis. Defects in this gene are a cause of coenzyme Q10 deficiency.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
