| Product Name | (2Z,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate synthase |
| Example Structure | ![]() |
| Synonyms | cis-farnesyl diphosphate synthase, cis-FPS, Mvan 4662, omega,E,Z-FPP, Rv1086, short (C15) chain Z-isoprenyl diphosphate synthase, Z,E-FPP synthase, Z-farnesyl diphosphate synthase, Z-FPP synthase, ZPT1 |
| EC Number | 2.5.1.68 |
| CAS Registry Number | |
| Comments | Requires Mg2+ or Mn2+ for activity. The product of this reaction is an intermediate in the synthesis of decaprenyl phosphate, which plays a central role in the biosynthesis of most features of the mycobacterial cell wall, including peptidoglycan, linker unit galactan and arabinan. Neryl diphosphate can also act as substrate. |
| Cofactor | Mn2+ or Mg2+ |
| History | |
| Reactions | Geranyl diphosphate + isopentenyl diphosphate = diphosphate + (2Z,6E)- farnesyl diphosphate. |
