EC 2.5.1.10 Details
EC number
2.5.1.10
Accepted name
(2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate synthase
Reaction
geranyl diphosphate + isopentenyl diphosphate = diphosphate + (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate
Other name(s)
farnesyl-diphosphate synthase, geranyl transferase I, prenyltransferase, farnesyl pyrophosphate synthetase, farnesylpyrophosphate synthetase, geranyltranstransferase
Systematic name
geranyl-diphosphate:isopentenyl-diphosphate geranyltranstransferase
CAS registry number
37277-79-5
Comment
Some forms of this enzyme will also use dimethylallyl diphosphate as a substrate. The enzyme will not accept larger prenyl diphosphates as efficient donors.
