PDSS2

{{Short description|Protein-coding gene in the species Homo sapiens}}

{{Infobox_gene}}

Decaprenyl-diphosphate synthase subunit 2 (PDSS2) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PDSS2 gene.{{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: prenyl (decaprenyl) diphosphate synthase| url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=57107| accessdate = }}

Function

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.

Clinical significance

It may be associated with Coenzyme Q10 deficiency.{{OMIM|607426}}
