|---|---|
| Systematic Name | YGL119W |
| Alias | ABC1 2 |
| Feature Type | ORF, Verified |
| Description | Protein required for ubiquinone biosynthesis and respiratory growth; exhibits genetic interaction with COQ9, suggesting a common function; similar to prokaryotic proteins involved in early steps of ubiquinone biosynthesis; COQ8 has a paralog, YBR230W-A, that arose from the whole genome duplication (2, 3, 4, 5, 6) |
