UniProt Comments
May be involved in the supply of solanesyl diphosphate for ubiquinone-9 biosynthesis in mitochondria (PubMed:21950843). Synthesizes C25 to C45 medium / long-chain products depending on the type of substrate available (PubMed:21220764). Can use geranyl diphosphate, farnesyl diphosphate or geranylgeranyl diphosphate as substrates, but not dimethylallyl diphosphate (PubMed:11069698, PubMed:17877699, PubMed:21220764).
