Description

farnesyl diphosphate synthetase

Gene Summary

Predicted to enable (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate synthase activity and dimethylallyltranstransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in farnesyl diphosphate biosynthetic process; positive regulation of cell growth involved in cardiac muscle cell development; and positive regulation of cholesterol biosynthetic process. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; integumental system; nervous system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in porokeratosis. Orthologous to human FDPS (farnesyl diphosphate synthase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, May 2025]
