In enzymology a farnesyltranstransferase (EC 2.5.1.29) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactiontranstrans-farnesyl diphosphate + isopentenyl diphosphate diphosphate + geranylgeranyl diphosphateThus the two substrates of this enzyme are transtrans-farnesyl diphosphate and isopentenyl diphosphate whereas its two products are diphosphate and geranylgeranyl diphosphate.This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases specifically those transferring aryl or alkyl groups other than methyl groups.
