Name
phosphoglycerol geranylfarnesyltransferase;
GFGP synthase
Class
Transferases;
Transferring alkyl or aryl groups, other than methyl groups;

Sysname
all-trans pentaprenyl diphosphate:sn-glycerol-1-phosphate pentaprenyltransferase
Reaction(IUBMB)
all-trans-pentaprenyl diphosphate + sn-glycerol 1-phosphate = sn-3-O-(farnesylgeranyl)glycerol 1-phosphate + diphosphate [RN:R13006]
Reaction(KEGG)
R13006
Substrate
all-trans-pentaprenyl diphosphate [CPD:C04217];
sn-glycerol 1-phosphate [CPD:C00623]
Product
sn-3-O-(farnesylgeranyl)glycerol 1-phosphate [CPD:C22513];
diphosphate [CPD:C00013]
Comment
The enzyme, characterized from the archaeon Aeropyrum pernix, catalyses the first pathway-specific step in the biosynthesis of the core membrane C25,C25-diether lipids in some archaea. It does not act on geranylgeranyl diphosphate. cf. EC 2.5.1.41, phosphoglycerol geranylgeranyltransferase.
