Cat No.

EXWM-2731

Description

Requires Mg2+ for activity. Involved in the biosynthesis of the vitamin E tocopherols. While the enzyme from the cyanobacterium Synechocystis PCC 6803 has an appreciable activity with geranylgeranyl diphosphate (EC 2.5.1.116, homogentisate geranylgeranyltransferase), the enzyme from the plant Arabidopsis thaliana has only a low activity with that substrate.

Form

Liquid or lyophilized powder

Enzyme Commission Number

EC 2.5.1.115
