Metabolite Identification
Common Name3-hexaprenyl-4-hydroxybenzoic acid
Description3-Hexaprenyl-4-hydroxybenzoic acid belongs to the class of organic compounds known as polyprenylphenols. Polyprenylphenols are compounds containing a polyisoprene chain attached to a phenol group. 3-Hexaprenyl-4-hydroxybenzoic acid is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. 3-Hexaprenyl-4-hydroxybenzoic acid exists in all eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to humans. In cattle, 3-hexaprenyl-4-hydroxybenzoic acid is involved in the metabolic pathway called ubiquinone biosynthesis pathway.

General function:
Not Available
Specific 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, generating the first membrane-bound Q intermediate.
