This gene is a member of the prenyltransferase family and
encodes a protein with geranylgeranyl diphosphate (GGPP) synthase
activity. The enzyme catalyzes the synthesis of GGPP from farnesyl
diphosphate and isopentenyl diphosphate. GGPP is an important
molecule responsible for the C20-prenylation of proteins and for
the regulation of a nuclear hormone receptor. Alternate
transcriptional splice variants, both protein-coding and
non-protein-coding, have been found for this gene. [provided by
