physiological function | the Escherichia coli UbiF gene expressed at low copy restores growth of Coq7 point mutant E194K on medium containing a non-fermentable carbon source, but fails to rescue a coq7 null mutant. Expression of UbiF from a multicopy vector restores growth and coenzyme Q synthesis for both mutants, although with a higher efficiency in the point mutant. Addition of coenzyme Q to the growth media also stabilizes the Coq3 and Coq4 polypeptides in the coq7 null mutant | Saccharomyces cerevisiae |
