Accepted Name |
Protein geranylgeranyltransferase type I.
|
Alternative Name(s) |
GGTase-I. |
GGTaseI. |

Cofactor(s) |
Zn(2+).
|
Comment(s) |
- This enzyme, along with EC 2.5.1.58 and EC 2.5.1.60, constitutes the
protein prenyltransferase family of enzymes.
- Catalyzes the formation of a thioether linkage between the C-1 atom
of the geranylgeranyl group and a cysteine residue fourth from the
C-terminus of the protein.
- These protein acceptors have the C-terminal sequence CA(1)A(2)X,
where the terminal residue, X, is preferably leucine; serine,
methionine, alanine or glutamine makes the protein a substrate for
EC 2.5.1.58.
- The enzymes are relaxed in specificity for A(1), but cannot act if
A(2) is aromatic.
- Known targets of this enzyme include most gamma-subunits of
heterotrimeric G proteins and Ras-related GTPases such as members of
the Ras and Rac/Rho families.
- The Zn(2+) is required for peptide, but not for isoprenoid, substrate
binding.
