| Function | Catalyzes the prenylation of para-hydroxybenzoate (PHB) with an all-trans polyprenyl group. Mediates the second step in the final reaction sequence of coenzyme Q (CoQ) biosynthesis, which is the condensation of the polyisoprenoid side chain with PHB (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}. |
| Subcellular Location | Mitochondrion membrane {ECO:0000250}; Multi- pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. |
| Top Pathways | Ubiquinone and other terpenoid-quinone biosynthesis |
