COQ7 coenzyme Q7, hydroxylase [ Homo sapiens (human) ]
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 10229)
Source: NCBI Gene (ID 10229)
Symbol: COQ7
Full name: coenzyme Q7, hydroxylase
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: REVIEWED
Organism: Homo sapiens
Also known as: CAT5; CLK-1; CLK1; COQ10D8
Summary: 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. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2010]
