INFORMANT : Yoshichika Yoshioka
NAME : [2E,6E]-3,7,11-Trimethyl-2,6,10-dodecatrien-1-yl diphosphate
| COMMON NAME | : | Farnesyl diphosphate, Farnesyl pyrophosphate |
| SYMBOL | : | FPP, FOPP |
| FORMULA | : | C15H28O7P2 MOL.WT (average) : 382.326 |
Rat liver microsomes catalyzed the formation of Z,E,E-geranylgeranyl diphosphate from farnesyl diphosphate and isopentenyl diphosphate in the presence of Triton X-100(
Ref. 0026). Metabolic labeling of rat liver slices with mevalonic acid revealed the accumulation of E,E,E-geranylgeranyl (di)phosphate as well as dolichyl (di)phosphate (C85 and C90) and dehydrodolichol (C85 and C90), but no accumulation of Z,E,E-geranylgeranyl (di)phosphate or E,E-farnesyl (di)phosphate was detected(
Ref. 0026). HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors induce apoptosis in mouse proximal tubular cells in primary culture. Geranylgeranylpyrophosphate and mevalonate completely reversed the effect of the inhibitors, while farnesylpyrophosphate partially reversed it and dolichol had no effect(
Ref. 0064).

The compound can be synthesized from farnesol.(
Ref. 0014)
The rate of de novo synthesis of geranylgeranyl diphosphate from mevalonic acid is comparable to that of farnesyl diphosphate(
Ref. 0078). Geranylgeranyl diphosphate synthase catalyzing the single condensation between isopentenyl diphosphate and farnesyl diphosphate. The enzyme required Mg2+ and Mn2+ for maximum activity. Octylglucoside showed a stimulatory effect on the enzyme activity. Farnesyl diphosphate is the common intermediate at the branch point for the synthesis of geranylgeranylated proteins as well as cholesterol, ubiquinone, dolichol, and farnesylated proteins(
Ref. 0070). The uptake of F-PP and GG-PP was studied using primary cultures of chromaffin cells. Dolichylmonophosphate and isopentenylpyrophosphate promoted the uptake(
Ref. 0079). The potential for feedback inhibition by isoprene intermediates in the isoprene biosynthetic pathway was investigated. The relative inhibitory capasity were as follows: GG-PP > F-PP > G-PP > FOH > dol-P. GOH and dolichol were not inhibitors(
Ref. 0039).
The crystal structure of recombinant farnesyl diphosphate synthase has been reported in (
Ref. 0017).
The nucleotide sequence of yeast farnesyl diphosphate synthase has been reported in (
Ref. 0019). Arabidopsis thaliana contains two differentially expressed farnesyl-diphosphate genes.(
