Recombinant Human CART/CARTPT Protein
- Background: Z-farnesyl diphosphate synthase (FDPS) is an enzyme belonging to the family of transferases; specifically those transferring aryl or alkyl groups other than methyl groups. Z-farnesyl diphosphate synthase (FDPS) functions as key enzyme in isoprenoid biosynthesis which catalyzes the formation of farnesyl diphosphate; a precurcor for several classes of essential metabolites. FDPS catalyzes the production of geranyl pyrophosphate and farnesyl pyrophosphate from isopentenyl pyrophosphate and dimethylallyl pyrophosphate. The resulting product; farnesyl pyrophosphate; is a key intermediate in cholesterol and sterol biosynthesis; a substrate for protein farnesylation and geranylgeranylation; and a ligand or agonist for certain hormone receptors and growth receptors. Drugs that inhibit this enzyme prevent the post-translational modifications of small GTPases and have been used to treat diseases related to bone resorption. Functions of FDPS may be inactivated by interferon-induced RSAD2. This inactivation may result of disruption of lipid rafts at the plasma membrane; and thus have an antiviral effect since many enveloped viruses need lipid rafts to bud efficiently out of the cell.
