Function Summary
  • Entrez Summary: N/A
  • UniProt Summary: Essential subunit of both the farnesyltransferase and the geranylgeranyltransferase complex. Contributes to the transfer of a farnesyl or geranylgeranyl moiety from farnesyl or geranylgeranyl diphosphate to a cysteine at the fourth position from the C-terminus of several proteins having the C-terminal sequence Cys-aliphatic-aliphatic-X. May positively regulate neuromuscular junction development downstream of MUSK via its function in RAC1 prenylation and activation. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:12036349, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12825937, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16893176, ECO:0000269|PubMed:19246009, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8419339, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8494894}.
