OX NCBI_TaxID=35935; RN [1] RP NUCLEOTIDE SEQUENCE [MRNA]. RC STRAIN=cv. Line 11591; TISSUE=Stem bark; RX MEDLINE=96400350; PubMed=8806726; DOI=10.1006/abbi.1996.0333; RA Pan Z., Herickhoff L.A., Backhaus R.A.; RT "Cloning, characterization, and heterologous expression of cDNAs for RT farnesyl diphosphate synthase from the guayule rubber plant reveals RT that this prenyltransferase occurs in rubber particles."; RL Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 332:196-204(1996). CC -!- FUNCTION: Catalyzes the sequential condensation of isopentenyl CC pyrophosphate with the allylic pyrophosphates, dimethylallyl CC pyrophosphate, and then with the resultant geranylpyrophosphate to CC the ultimate product farnesyl pyrophosphate. CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Dimethylallyl diphosphate + isopentenyl CC diphosphate = diphosphate + geranyl diphosphate. CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Geranyl diphosphate + isopentenyl diphosphate CC = diphosphate + trans,trans-farnesyl diphosphate. CC -!- PATHWAY: Isoprenoid biosynthesis; farnesyl-PP biosynthesis; CC farnesyl-PP from geranyl-PP and isopentenyl-PP: step 1/1. CC -!- PATHWAY: Isoprenoid biosynthesis; geranyl-PP biosynthesis; CC geranyl-PP from dimethylallyl-PP and isopentenyl-PP: step 1/1. CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. Note=Rubber particles. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the FPP/GGPP synthetase family.
