Geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate synthase (GGPS1) is a member of the FPP/GGPP synthase family. GGPS1 is highly expressed in testis, heart and skeletal muscle. GGPS1 is localized in the cytoplasm and has geranylgeranyl diphosphate (GGPP) synthase activity. It catalyzes the trans-addition of the three molecules of IPP onto DMAPP to form geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate, an important precursor of carotenoids and geranylated proteins. Other transcriptional splice variants have been found.
Recombinant Human Geranylgeranyl Pyrophosphate Synthase is produced by our E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Met1-Glu300 is expressed with a 6His tag at the N-terminus.
