General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the trans-addition of the three molecules of IPP onto DMAPP to form geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate.

Catalytic activity

Dimethylallyl diphosphate + isopentenyl diphosphate = diphosphate + geranyl diphosphate.

Geranyl diphosphate + isopentenyl diphosphate = diphosphate + (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate.

(2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate + isopentenyl diphosphate = diphosphate + geranylgeranyl diphosphate.

Cofactor

Binds 3 magnesium ions per subunit By similarity.

Pathway

Isoprenoid biosynthesis; farnesyl diphosphate biosynthesis; farnesyl diphosphate from geranyl diphosphate and isopentenyl diphosphate: step 1/1.

Isoprenoid biosynthesis; geranyl diphosphate biosynthesis; geranyl diphosphate from dimethylallyl diphosphate and isopentenyl diphosphate: step 1/1.

Isoprenoid biosynthesis; geranylgeranyl diphosphate biosynthesis; geranylgeranyl diphosphate from farnesyl diphosphate and isopentenyl diphosphate: step 1/1.

Subunit structure

Monomer By similarity.

Subcellular location

Endoplasmic reticulum Ref.5.

Tissue specificity

Faintly expressed in flowers. Ref.5

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the FPP/GGPP synthase family.
