Enzyme Commission Number
EC 2.5.1.68
Product Overview
High-quality enzyme products.
Well-established quality management system.
Reaction
geranyl diphosphate + isopentenyl diphosphate = diphosphate + (2Z,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate
Systematic Name
geranyl-diphosphate:isopentenyl-diphosphate geranylcistransferase
Function
Requires Mg2+ or Mn2+ for activity. The product of this reaction is an intermediate in the synthesis of decaprenyl phosphate, which plays a central role in the biosynthesis of most features of the mycobacterial cell wall, including peptidoglycan, linker unit galactan and arabinan. Neryl diphosphate can also act as substrate.
Other name
(Z)-farnesyl diphosphate synthase; Z-farnesyl diphosphate synthase
Production Methods
Fermentation
Package
on customer request
Applications
Research Use
Storage
Should be stored in a dry and cool place, avoiding high temperature.
Appearance / Form
powder or liquid
Odor
Normal microbial fermentation odour.
WARNINGS
Keep sealed after use every time to avoid microbial infections and inactivation of enzymes until its finish.
Description
Microbial enzymes have been used in a large number of fields, such as chemical, agricultural and biopharmaceutical industries. Our enzyme production services are based on bacteria, fungi, and yeast, from strain selection, optimization, and process development to scale-up production.
