protein farnesyltransferase subunit beta is an essential subunit of the farnesyltransferase complex that 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

Protein farnesyltransferase (FTase)_like proteins containing the protein prenyltransferase (PTase) domain, beta subunit (alpha 6 - alpha 6 barrel fold). FTases are a subgroup of PTase family of lipid-modifying enzymes. PTases catalyze the carboxyl-terminal lipidation of Ras, Rab, and several other cellular signal transduction proteins, facilitating membrane associations and specific protein-protein interactions. These proteins are heterodimers of alpha and beta subunits. Both subunits are required for catalytic activity. Prenyltransferases employ a Zn2+ ion to alkylate a thiol group catalyzing the formation of thioether linkages between cysteine residues at or near the C-terminus of protein acceptors and the C1 atom of isoprenoid lipids. Ftase attaches a 15-carbon farnesyl group to the cysteine within the C-terminal CaaX motif of substrate proteins when X is Ala, Met, Ser, Cys or Gln. Protein farnesylation has been shown to play critical roles in a variety of cellular processes including Ras/mitogen activated protein kinase signaling pathways in mammals and, abscisic acid signal transduction in Arabidopsis.

Protein prenyltransferase (PTase) domain, beta subunit (alpha 6 - alpha 6 barrel fold). The protein prenyltransferase family of lipid-modifying enzymes includes protein farnesyltransferase (FTase) and geranylgeranyltransferase types I and II (GGTase-I and GGTase-II). They catalyze the carboxyl-terminal lipidation of Ras, Rab, and several other cellular signal transduction proteins, facilitating membrane associations and specific protein-protein interactions. Prenyltransferases employ a Zn2+ ion to alkylate a thiol group catalyzing the formation of thioether linkages between the C1 atom of farnesyl (15-carbon by FTase) or geranylgeranyl (20-carbon by GGTase-I, II) isoprenoid lipids and cysteine residues at or near the C-terminus of protein acceptors. FTase and GGTase-I prenylate the cysteine in the terminal sequence, "CAAX"; and GGTase-II prenylates both cysteines in the "CC" (or "CXC") terminal sequence. These enzymes are heterodimeric with both alpha and beta subunits required for catalytic activity. In contrast to other prenyltransferases, GGTase-II does not recognize its protein acceptor directly but requires Rab to complex with REP (Rab escort protein) before prenylation can occur. These enzymes are found exclusively in eukaryotes.

Geranylgeranyltransferase types I (GGTase-I)-like proteins containing the protein prenyltransferase (PTase) domain, beta subunit (alpha 6 - alpha 6 barrel fold). GGTase-I s are a subgroup of the protein prenyltransferase family of lipid-modifying enzymes PTases catalyze the carboxyl-terminal lipidation of Ras, Rab, and several other cellular signal transduction proteins, facilitating membrane associations and specific protein-protein interactions. Prenyltransferases employ a Zn2+ ion to alkylate a thiol group catalyzing the formation of thioether linkages between cysteine residues at or near the C-terminus of protein acceptors and the C1 atom of isoprenoid lipids (geranylgeranyl (20-carbon) in the case of GGTase-I ). GGTase-I prenylates the cysteine in the terminal sequence, "CAAX" when X is Leu or Phe. Substrates for GTTase-I include the gamma subunit of neural G-proteins and several Ras-related G-proteins. PTases are heterodimeric with both alpha and beta subunits required for catalytic activity.

This group contains class II terpene cyclases, protein prenyltransferases beta subunit, two broadly specific proteinase inhibitors alpha2-macroglobulin (alpha (2)-M) and pregnancy zone protein (PZP) and, the C3 C4 and C5 components of vertebrate complement. Class II terpene cyclases include squalene cyclase (SQCY) and 2,3-oxidosqualene cyclase (OSQCY), these integral membrane proteins catalyze a cationic cyclization cascade converting linear triterpenes to fused ring compounds. The protein prenyltransferases include protein farnesyltransferase (FTase) and geranylgeranyltransferase types I and II (GGTase-I and GGTase-II) which catalyze the carboxyl-terminal lipidation of Ras, Rab, and several other cellular signal transduction proteins, facilitating membrane associations and specific protein-protein interactions. Alpha (2)-M is a major carrier protein in serum and involved in the immobilization and entrapment of proteases. PZP is a pregnancy associated protein. Alpha (2)-M and PZP are known to bind to and, may modulate, the activity of placental protein-14 in T-cell growth and cytokine production thereby protecting the allogeneic fetus from attack by the maternal immune system.

Geranylgeranyltransferase type II (GGTase-II)_like proteins containing the protein prenyltransferase (PTase) domain, beta subunit (alpha 6 - alpha 6 barrel fold). GGTase-IIs are a subgroup of the protein prenyltransferase family of lipid-modifying enzymes. PTases catalyze the carboxyl-terminal lipidation of Ras, Rab, and several other cellular signal transduction proteins, facilitating membrane associations and specific protein-protein interactions. Prenyltransferases employ a Zn2+ ion to alkylate a thiol group catalyzing the formation of thioether linkages between cysteine residues at or near the C-terminus of protein acceptors and the C1 atom of isoprenoid lipids (geranylgeranyl (20-carbon) in the case of GGTase-II ). GGTase-II catalyzes alkylation of both cysteine residues in Rab proteins containing carboxy-terminal "CC", "CXCX" or "CXC" motifs. PTases are heterodimeric with both alpha and beta subunits required for catalytic activity. In contrast to other prenyltransferases, GGTas-II requires an escort protein to bring the substrate protein to the catalytic heterodimer and to escort the geryanylgeranylated product to the membrane.
