Term:CAAX-protein geranylgeranyltransferase activity
go back to main search page
Accession:GO:0004662 term browser browse the term
Definition:Catalysis of the reaction: geranylgeranyl diphosphate + protein-cysteine = S-geranylgeranyl-protein + diphosphate. This reaction is 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. The protein substrates have the C-terminal sequence CA1A2X, where the terminal residue, X, is preferably leucine and A2 should not be aromatic. Known substrates include most g-subunits of heterotrimeric G proteins and Ras-related GTPases such as members of the Ras and Rac/Rho families.
Synonyms:exact_synonym: GGTase-I activity;   GGTaseI activity;   geranylgeranyl-diphosphate:protein-cysteine geranyltransferase activity;   geranylgeranyltransferase type I activity
 related_synonym: protein geranylgeranyltransferase type I;   type I protein geranyl-geranyltransferase activity
 xref: EC:2.5.1.59;   MetaCyc:RXN-3701
