Function

Function:
Essential subunit of the farnesyltransferase complex. Catalyzes the transfer of a farnesyl moiety from farnesyl diphosphate to a cysteine at the fourth position from the C-terminus of several proteins having the C-terminal sequence Cys-aliphatic-aliphatic-X.
Catalytic Activity:
Farnesyl diphosphate + protein-cysteine = S-farnesyl protein + diphosphate.
Cofactor:
COFACTOR: Name=Zn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29105;
