UbiA prenyltransferase domain-containing protein 1 (UBIAD1) also known as transitional epithelial response protein 1 (TERE1) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the UBIAD1 gene.
Recent evidence suggests that ubiad1 has enzymatic activity in the vitamin K pathway, a role in blood vessel development, and may be involved in oxidative stress pathways.
Clinical significance
Mutations of the UBIAD1 gene cause Schnyder crystalline corneal dystrophy.
