Gene:
coenzyme Q7 homolog, ubiquinone (yeast)
Gene ID:
190357
Symbol:
COQ7
Species:
1000
Description:
The protein encoded by this gene is similar to a mitochondrial di-iron containing hydroxylase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae that is involved with ubiquinone biosynthesis. Mutations in the yeast gene lead to slower development and longer life span. Transcript variants have been described for this gene, but their full-length sequences have not been determined.
