Full name: UbiA prenyltransferase domain containing 1

Gene type: protein coding

RefSeq status: VALIDATED

Also known as: 1200002M06Rik; Tere1

Summary: Predicted to enable antioxidant activity and prenyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in menaquinone biosynthetic process; ubiquinone biosynthetic process via 3,4-dihydroxy-5-polyprenylbenzoate; and vitamin K biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm; membrane; and nucleus. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to be integral component of Golgi membrane. Used to study Schnyder corneal dystrophy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Schnyder corneal dystrophy. Orthologous to human UBIAD1 (UbiA prenyltransferase domain containing 1).
