BRITE hierarchy
Sysname
(2E,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate:3-methylbut-3-en-1-yl-diphosphate farnesyltranstransferase (adding 3 units of 3-methylbut-3-en-1-yl)
Reaction(IUBMB)
(2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate + 3 (3-methylbut-3-en-1-yl diphosphate) = 3 diphosphate + all-trans-hexaprenyl diphosphate [RN:
R09245 ]
Reaction(KEGG)
Substrate
(2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate [CPD:
C00448 ];
3-methylbut-3-en-1-yl diphosphate [CPD:
C00129 ]
Product
diphosphate [CPD:
C00013 ];
all-trans-hexaprenyl diphosphate [CPD:
C01230 ]
Comment
The enzyme prefers farnesyl diphosphate to geranylgeranyl diphosphate as an allylic substrate and does not show activity for geranyl diphosphate and prenyl diphosphate [1].
