Summary
Protein geranylgeranyltransferase type I (GGTase-I) transfers a geranylgeranyl group to the cysteine residue of candidate proteins containing a C-terminal CAAX motif in which 'A' is an aliphatic amino acid and 'X' is leucine (summarized by Zhang et al., 1994 [PubMed 8106351]). The enzyme is composed of a 48-kD alpha subunit (FNTA; MIM 134635) and a 43-kD beta subunit, encoded by the PGGT1B gene. The FNTA gene encodes the alpha subunit for both GGTase-I and the related enzyme farnesyltransferase.[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2010]

Comments

Comment Type Description
Alternative Products Event=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=2; Name=1; IsoId=P53609-1; Sequence=Displayed; Name=2; IsoId=P53609-2; Sequence=VSP_021827; Note=No experimental confirmation available.;
Catalytic Activity Geranylgeranyl diphosphate + protein-cysteine = S-geranylgeranyl-protein + diphosphate.
Cofactor Name=Zn(2+); Xref=ChEBI
Function Catalyzes the transfer of a geranyl-geranyl moiety from geranyl-geranyl pyrophosphate to a cysteine at the fourth position from the C-terminus of proteins having the C-terminal sequence Cys-aliphatic-aliphatic-X. Known substrates include RAC1, RAC2, RAP1A and RAP1B.
Similarity Belongs to the protein prenyltransferase subunit beta family.
Similarity Contains 4 PFTB repeats.
Subunit Heterodimer of FNTA and PGGT1B. PGGT1B mediates interaction with substrate peptides.
