COQ7 [SEP] found in taxon
COQ7
The clk-1 (clock-1) gene encodes an enzyme (demethoxyubiquinone monooxygenase) that is necessary for ubiquinone biosynthesis in the worm "Caenorhabditis elegans" and other eukaryotes. The mouse version of the gene is called mclk-1 and the human, fruit fly and yeast homolog COQ7 (coenzyme Q biosynthesis protein 7).
CLK-1 is not to be confused with the unrelated human protein CLK1 which plays a role in RNA splicing.
Structure.
The protein has two repeats of approximately 90 amino acids, that contain two conserved motifs
