GENE INFORMATION

Gene name

PDSS2 (HGNC Symbol)

Synonyms

bA59I9.3, C6orf210

Description

Prenyl (decaprenyl) diphosphate synthase, subunit 2 (HGNC Symbol)

Entrez gene summary

The protein encoded by this gene is an enzyme that synthesizes the prenyl side-chain of coenzyme Q, or ubiquinone, one of the key elements in the respiratory chain. The gene product catalyzes the formation of all trans-polyprenyl pyrophosphates from isopentyl diphosphate in the assembly of polyisoprenoid side chains, the first step in coenzyme Q biosynthesis. Defects in this gene are a cause of coenzyme Q10 deficiency.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]
