AT3G59380 | farnesyltransferase A Encodes the alpha-subunit shared between protein farnesyltransferase and protein geranylgeranyltransferase-I. Involved in protein prenylation: covalent attachment of the C-15 isoprene farnesyl or the C-20 isoprene geranylgeranyl groups to the C-terminal end of some proteins. Involved in shoot and flower meristem homeostasis, and response to ABA and drought. Also regulates leaf cell shape. Mutant is epistatic to era1. farnesyltransferase A (FTA); CONTAINS InterPro DOMAIN/s: Protein prenyltransferase (InterPro:IPR008940), Protein prenyltransferase, alpha subunit (InterPro:IPR002088); BEST Arabidopsis thaliana protein match is: RAB geranylgeranyl transferase alpha subunit 1 (TAIR:AT4G24490.2); Has 1351 Blast hits to 1070 proteins in 249 species: Archae - 32; Bacteria - 58; Metazoa - 584; Fungi - 296; Plants - 191; Viruses - 0; Other Eukaryotes - 190 (source: NCBI BLink). | 3 | + | View |
