COQ2 - coenzyme Q2, polyprenyltransferase Gene
Also Known as MSA1; CL640; COQ10D1; PHB:PPT
Species: Homo sapiens
About COQ2
This gene has 6 transcripts (splice variants), 218 orthologues, 1 paralogue and is associated with 6 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in adrenal (RPKM 2.9), colon (RPKM 2.1) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes an enzyme that functions in the final steps in the biosynthesis of CoQ (ubiquinone), a redox carrier in the mitochondrial respiratory chain and a lipid-soluble antioxidant. This enzyme, which is part of the coenzyme Q10 pathway, catalyzes the prenylation of parahydroxybenzoate with an all-trans polyprenyl group. Mutations in this gene cause coenzyme Q10 deficiency, a mitochondrial encephalomyopathy, and also COQ2 nephropathy, an inherited form of mitochondriopathy with primary renal involvement.
