CC -!- FUNCTION: Key enzyme in isoprenoid biosynthesis which catalyzes CC the formation of farnesyl diphosphate (FPP), a precursor for CC several classes of essential metabolites including sterols, CC dolichols, carotenoids, and ubiquinones. FPP also serves as CC substrate for protein farnesylation and geranylgeranylation. CC Catalyzes the sequential condensation of isopentenyl pyrophosphate CC with the allylic pyrophosphates, dimethylallyl pyrophosphate, and CC then with the resultant geranylpyrophosphate to the ultimate CC product farnesyl pyrophosphate (By similarity). CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Dimethylallyl diphosphate + isopentenyl CC diphosphate = diphosphate + geranyl diphosphate. CC -!- CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Geranyl diphosphate + isopentenyl diphosphate CC = diphosphate + trans,trans-farnesyl diphosphate. CC -!- ENZYME REGULATION: Inactivated by interferon-induced RSAD2. This CC inactivation may result of disruption of lipid rafts at the plasma CC membrane, and thus have an antiviral effect since many envelopped CC viruses need lipid rafts to bud efficiently out of the cell (By CC similarity). CC -!- PATHWAY: Isoprenoid biosynthesis; farnesyl-PP biosynthesis; CC farnesyl-PP from geranyl-PP and isopentenyl-PP: step 1/1. CC -!- PATHWAY: Isoprenoid biosynthesis; geranyl-PP biosynthesis; CC geranyl-PP from dimethylallyl-PP and isopentenyl-PP: step 1/1. CC -!- SUBUNIT: Homodimer. Interacts with RSAD2 (By similarity). CC -!- SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm. CC -!- TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Testis, liver, kidney, brain and adrenal CC gland. CC -!- SIMILARITY: Belongs to the FPP/GGPP synthetase family.
