ENZYME entry: EC 2.5.1.155

PURL: https://purl.expasy.org/enzyme/EC/2.5.1.155
Accepted Name
phosphoglycerol geranylfarnesyltransferase
Alternative Name(s)
GFGP synthase
Reaction catalysed
sn-glycerol 1-phosphate + (2E,6E,10E,14E)-geranylfarnesyl diphosphate = sn-3-(O-farnesylgeranyl)glycerol 1-phosphate + diphosphate
Comment(s)
  • The enzyme, characterized from the archaeon Aeropyrum pernix, catalyzes the first pathway-specific step in the biosynthesis of the core membrane C25,C25-diether lipids in some archaea.
  • It does not act on geranylgeranyl diphosphate. cf. EC 2.5.1.41.
