Comment typeDescription
Catalytic ActivityFarnesyl diphosphate + protein-cysteine = S- farnesyl protein + diphosphate.
CofactorName=Zn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29105; Evidence={ECO:0000250}; Note=Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit. {ECO:0000250};
CofactorName=Zn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29105; Evidence= ; Note=Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit. ;
FunctionCatalyzes the transfer of a farnesyl moiety from farnesyl diphosphate to a cysteine at the fourth position from the C-terminus of several proteins such as a-factor and RAS. The beta subunit is responsible for peptide-binding.
