N2 - IS16 is a thiol-sensitive, Q-deficient mutant strain of Escherichia coli. Here, we show that IS16 harbors a mutation in the ubiG gene encoding a methyltransferase required for two O-methylation steps of Q biosynthesis. Complementation of IS16 with either ubiG or ubiXK-12 reverses this phenotype, suggesting that UbiX may interact with UbiG. Copyright © 2006, American Society for Microbiology. All Rights Reserved.
