Protein geranylgeranyltransferase type I subunit beta is a
protein that in humans is encoded by the PGGT1B
gene.
[5]
Function
Protein geranylgeranyltransferase type I (GGTase-I) transfers a
geranylgeranyl group to the
cysteine residue of candidate proteins containing a C-terminal
CAAX motif in which 'A' is an
aliphaticamino acid and 'X' is
leucine (summarized by Zhang et al., 1994 [PubMed 8106351]). The enzyme is composed of a 48-kD alpha subunit (FNTA; MIM 134635) and a 43-kD beta subunit, encoded by the PGGT1B gene. The
FNTA gene encodes the alpha subunit for both GGTase-I and the related enzyme
farnesyltransferase.[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2010].
