Comments

Comment Type Description
Catalytic Activity Geranylgeranyl diphosphate + protein-cysteine = S-geranylgeranyl-protein + diphosphate.
Enzyme Regulation The enzymatic reaction requires the aid of a Rab escort protein (also called component A), such as CHM.
Function Catalyzes the transfer of a geranylgeranyl moiety from geranylgeranyl diphosphate to both cysteines of Rab proteins with the C-terminal sequence -XXCC, -XCXC and -CCXX, such as RAB1A, RAB3A, RAB5A and RAB7A.
Similarity Belongs to the protein prenyltransferase subunit alpha family.
Similarity Contains 5 LRR (leucine-rich) repeats.
Similarity Contains 6 PFTA repeats. {ECO
Subunit Heterotrimer composed of RABGGTA, RABGGTB and CHM; within this trimer, RABGGTA and RABGGTB form the catalytic component B, while CHM (component A) mediates peptide substrate binding. The Rab GGTase dimer (RGGT) interacts with CHM (component A) prior to Rab protein binding; the association is stabilized by geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate (GGpp). The CHM
