Type: | Family | Name: | Ubiquinone biosynthesis O-methyltransferase |
Description: | This entry represents an O-methyltransferase, which is believed to act at two points in the ubiquinone biosynthetic pathway in bacteria (UbiG) and mitochondria (COQ3) [, ]. A separate methylase (MenG/UbiE) catalyses the single C-methylation step. The most commonly used names for genes in this family do not indicate whether this gene is an O-methyl, or C-methyl transferase. | Short Name: | UbiG_MeTrfase |
