Name
geranyltranstransferase activity
Ontology
molecular_function
Synonyms
farnesyl pyrophosphate synthetase activity, farnesyl-diphosphate synthase activity, FPP synthetase activity, farnesyl diphosphate synthetase activity, farnesylpyrophosphate synthetase activity, geranyl transferase I, geranyl-diphosphate:isopentenyl-diphosphate geranyltranstransferase activity, geranyltransferase activity

Definition
Catalysis of the reaction: geranyl diphosphate + isopentenyl diphosphate = 2-trans,6-trans-farnesyl diphosphate + diphosphate. Source: EC:2.5.1.10, RHEA:19361
Comment
Note that this is the second step in the formation of farnesyl diphosphate. The first step is 'dimethylallyltransferase activity ; GO:0004161'. Consider also annotating to the biological process term 'farnesyl diphosphate biosynthetic process ; GO:0045337'.
