Gene name ubiE

case <OC:Proteobacteria>
FUNCTION: Methyltransferase required for the conversion of demethylmenaquinone (DMKH2) to menaquinone (MKH2) and the conversion of 2-polyprenyl-6-methoxy-1,4-benzoquinol (DDMQH2) to 2-polyprenyl-3-methyl-6-methoxy-1,4-benzoquinol (DMQH2) (By similarity).
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: A demethylmenaquinone + S-adenosyl-L-methionine = a menaquinol + S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine.
CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: S-adenosyl-L-methionine + 2-methoxy-6-all-trans-polyprenyl-1,4-benzoquinol = S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine + 6-methoxy-3-methyl-2-all-trans-polyprenyl-1,4-benzoquinol.
PATHWAY: Cofactor biosynthesis; menaquinone biosynthesis; menaquinone-2 from chorismate: step 8/8.
PATHWAY: Cofactor biosynthesis; ubiquinone biosynthesis.
end case
