Fdft1 - farnesyl diphosphate farnesyl transferase 1 Gene

Species: Rattus norvegicus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 29580

Summary

Enables farnesyl-diphosphate farnesyltransferase activity. Involved in Cholesterol biosynthetic process and farnesyl diphosphate metabolic process. Located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Used to study cataract. Orthologous to human FDFT1 (farnesyl-diphosphate farnesyltransferase 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
