Descriptions

UbiB protein kinase-like (PKL) family is wide-spread, comprising one-quarter of microbial PKLs and five human homologs. Coq8a is a mammalian UbiB protein associated with ubiquinone (CoQ) biosynthesis. A human homolog (COQ8A) lacks canonical protein kinase activity in trans. Instead, it has ATPase activity and interacts with lipid CoQ intermediates. Autoinhibition is achieved by the N-terminal region containing KxGQ motif, which occludes the substrate binding site of the kinase domain within the same polypeptide.

3 GO annotations of cellular component

Name Definition
extrinsic component of mitochondrial inner membrane The component of mitochondrial inner membrane consisting of gene products and protein complexes that are loosely bound to one of its surfaces, but not integrated into the hydrophobic region.
integral component of membrane The component of a membrane consisting of the gene products and protein complexes having at least some part of their peptide sequence embedded in the hydrophobic region of the membrane.
mitochondrion A semiautonomous, self replicating organelle that occurs in varying numbers, shapes, and sizes in the cytoplasm of virtually all eukaryotic cells. It is notably the site of tissue respiration.

3 GO annotations of molecular function

Name Definition
ADP binding Binding to ADP, adenosine 5'-diphosphate.
ATP binding Binding to ATP, adenosine 5'-triphosphate, a universally important coenzyme and enzyme regulator.
kinase activity Catalysis of the transfer of a phosphate group, usually from ATP, to a substrate molecule.

2 GO annotations of biological process

Name Definition
phosphorylation The process of introducing a phosphate group into a molecule, usually with the formation of a phosphoric ester, a phosphoric anhydride or a phosphoric amide.
ubiquinone biosynthetic process The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of ubiquinone, a lipid-soluble electron-transporting coenzyme.
