2.5.1.58Gene ontology ID
GO:0004660
Definition
Catalysis of the reaction: farnesyl diphosphate + protein-cysteine = S-farnesyl protein + diphosphate
Comment
The catalyzed reaction transfers a farnesyl group from farnesyl diphosphate to a target protein. There is no relationship between this activity and farnesyltransferase activity, GO:0004311, where the catalyzed reaction forms (free) geranylgeranyl diphosphate.
Synonyms
1. CAAX farnesyltransferase activity
2. farnesyl-diphosphate:protein-cysteine farnesyltransferase activity
3. FTase activity
4. protein-cysteine farnesyltransferase activity
