Superfamily Decaprenyl diphosphate synthase-like
Functional Family (2E,6E)-farnesyl-diphosphate-specific ditrans,polycis-undecaprenyl-diphosphate synthase

Enzyme Information

2.5.1.92
(2Z,6Z)-farnesyl diphosphate synthase.
based on mapping to UniProt B8XA40
Dimethylallyl diphosphate + 2 isopentenyl diphosphate = 2 diphosphate + (2Z,6Z)-farnesyl diphosphate.
-!- This enzyme, originally characterized from wild tomato, specifically forms (2Z,6Z)-farnesyl diphosphate via neryl diphosphate and isopentenyl diphosphate. -!- In wild tomato it is involved in the biosynthesis of several sesquiterpenes. -!- Cf. EC 2.5.1.68 and EC 2.5.1.10.
