Metabolite Identification
Common NameFarnesyl pyrophosphate
DescriptionFarnesyl pyrophosphate, also known as farnesyl diphosphoric acid or farnesyl-PP, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as sesquiterpenoids. These are terpenes with three consecutive isoprene units. Farnesyl pyrophosphate is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral.

Farnesyl pyrophosphate + Isopentenyl pyrophosphate → Pyrophosphate + Geranylgeranyl-PPdetails
General function:
Involved in isoprenoid biosynthetic process
Specific function:
Key enzyme in isoprenoid biosynthesis which catalyzes the formation of farnesyl diphosphate (FPP), a precursor for several classes of essential metabolites including sterols, dolichols, carotenoids, and ubiquinones. FPP also serves as substrate for protein farnesylation and geranylgeranylation. Catalyzes the sequential condensation of isopentenyl pyrophosphate with the allylic pyrophosphates, dimethylallyl pyrophosphate, and then with the resultant geranylpyrophosphate to the ultimate product farnesyl pyrophosphate.

Reactions
Heme + Water + Farnesyl pyrophosphate → Heme O + Pyrophosphatedetails
General function:
Involved in protein prenyltransferase activity
Specific function:
Catalyzes the transfer of a farnesyl or geranyl-geranyl moiety from farnesyl or geranyl-geranyl pyrophosphate to a cysteine at the fourth position from the C-terminus of several proteins having the C-terminal sequence Cys-aliphatic-aliphatic-X. The alpha subunit is thought to participate in a stable complex with the substrate. The beta subunit binds the peptide substrate. Through RAC1 prenylation and activation may positively regulate neuromuscular junction development downstream of MUSK (By similarity).
