Suppressor analysis of the clk-1 mutants of Caenorhabditis elegans
clk-1 encodes a hydroxylase that is necessary for ubiquinone (UQ) biosynthesis. clk-1 mutants do not synthesize UQ, but instead accumulate the precursor demethoxyubiquinone (DMQ). When fed on bacteria that synthesize UQ the mutants are viable but display slow development, behaviours and aging. Howev...
