Comments [?]

Function	Required for ubiquinone (coenzyme Q) biosynthesis. Binds hydrophobic ubiquinone biosynthetic intermediates via its SCP2 domain and is essential for the stability of the Ubi complex. May constitute a docking platform where Ubi enzymes assemble and access their SCP2-bound polyprenyl substrates.
Pathway	Cofactor biosynthesis; ubiquinone biosynthesis.
Subcellular location	Cytoplasm.
Similarity	Belongs to the UbiJ family.
