ENTRY EC 2.5.1.11
NAME trans-Octaprenyltranstransferase
all-trans-Nonaprenyl-diphosphate synthase
Solanesyl-diphosphate synthase
CLASS Transferases
Transferring alkyl or aryl groups, other than methyl groups
SYSNAME (E)-Octaprenyl-diphosphate:isopentenyl-diphosphate
$ octaprenyltracetransferase
REACTION all-trans-Octaprenyl diphosphate + Isopentenyl diphosphate =
Pyrophosphate + all-trans-Nonaprenyl diphosphate
SUBSTRATE all-trans-Octaprenyl diphosphate
Isopentenyl diphosphate
PRODUCT Pyrophosphate
all-trans-Nonaprenyl diphosphate
COMMENT This enzyme will also use geranyl diphosphate and all-trans-
prenyl diphosphates of intermediate size as donors, but not
dimenthylallyl diphosphate.
