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.

The enzyme is named for its canonical role in ubiquinone production, catalyzing reaction EC 2.5.1.39; it thus has a role in oxidative stress pathways.
