Genetic evidence for an interaction of the UbiG O-methyltransferase with UbiX in Escherichia coli coenzyme Q biosynthesis.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Sept 2006

Gulmezian Melissa, Zhang Haitao, Javor George T, Clarke Catherine F

Abstract excerpt

IS16 is a thiol-sensitive, Q-deficient mutant strain of Escherichia coli. Here, we show that IS16 harbors a mutation in the ubiG gene encoding a methyltransferase required for two O-methylation steps of Q biosynthesis. Complementation of IS16 with either ubiG or ubiX(K-12) reverses this phenotype...
