About This Section

Entrez Gene summary for FNTA:
Prenyltransferases can attach either a farnesyl group or a geranylgeranyl group in thioether linkage to the cysteine
residue of proteins with a C-terminal CAAX box. CAAX geranylgeranyltransferase and CAAX farnesyltransferase are
heterodimers that share the same alpha subunit but have different beta subunits. This gene encodes the alpha subunit
of these transferases. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Related pseudogenes have been
identified on chromosomes 11 and 13. (provided by RefSeq, May 2010)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: FNTA_HUMAN, P49354
Function: Catalyzes the transfer of a farnesyl or geranyl-geranyl moiety from farnesyl or geranyl-geranyl pyrophosphate
to a cysteine at the fourth position from the C-terminus of several proteins having the C-terminal sequence
Cys-aliphatic-aliphatic-X. The alpha subunit is thought to participate in a stable complex with the substrate. The
beta subunit binds the peptide substrate. Through RAC1 prenylation and activation may positively regulate
neuromuscular junction development downstream of MUSK (By similarity)

summary for FNTA:
Prenyltransferases are enzymes which transfer prenyl groups to acceptor molecules. The family contains
farnesyltransferase (FT) and geranylgeranyltransferase 1 (GGT1), which attach a farnesyl group or a geranyl
group respectively. This attachment permits membrane localization of proteins without a transmembrane
domain, and occurs post-translationally. FTase and GGTase are heterodimeric enzymes, which both share an
alpha-subunit and different beta-subunits. Both recognize a CAAX sequence present at the C-terminus of the
target protein. Target proteins include Ras, which is suggestive of a role for prenylation in tumor
development. Ras GTPases require farnesylation for malignant activity, and many of the downstream proteins
it targets are also subject to farnesylation or geranylgeranylation in order to mediate the growth, survival
and migration of tumor cells. Prenyltransferase inhibitors are therefore of interest in the development of
cancer therapeutics. Farnesyltransferase inhibitors (FTIs) induce antitumor effects by inducing apoptosis
and cell cycle arrest, and inhibiting cell proliferation, migration and angiogenesis.
Geranylgeranyltransferase 1 inhibitors (GGTIs) also induce apoptosis and inhibit the growth of tumor cells.
