SYSTEMATIC NAME
IUBMB Comments
(2Z,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate:isopentenyl-diphosphate cistransferase (adding 9–11 isopentenyl units)
Highest activity with (2Z,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate as allylic substrate. Broad product specificity with the major product being dodecaprenyl diphosphate. Synthesizes even C70 prenyl diphosphate as the maximum chain-length product [1].
