Protein
Protein farnesyltransferase/geranylgeranyltransferase type-1 subunit alpha
Organism
Solanum lycopersicum
Function
Essential subunit of both the farnesyltransferase and the geranylgeranyltransferase complex. Contributes to the transfer of a farnesyl or geranylgeranyl moiety from farnesyl or geranylgeranyl diphosphate to a cysteine at the fourth position from the C-terminus of several proteins having the C-terminal sequence Cys-aliphatic-aliphatic-X.
Similarity
Belongs to the protein prenyltransferase subunit alpha family.
