Ubiquinone biosynthesis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae: isolation and sequence of COQ3, the 3,4-dihydroxy-5-hexaprenylbenzoate methyltransferase gene

Ubiquinone (or coenzyme Q) is a lipid component of the respiratory chain in the inner mitochondrial membrane, in which it functions in electron transport. Recent reports show that ubiquinone and ubiquinone biosynthetic enzymes are present in both mitochondrial and nonmitochondrial membranes of cells...
