GONUTS has been updated to MW1.31 Most things seem to be working but be sure to report problems.
Category:GO:0004311 ! geranylgeranyl diphosphate synthase activity
name: geranylgeranyl diphosphate synthase activity
namespace: molecular_function
def: "Catalysis of the reaction: (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate + isopentenyl diphosphate = (2E,6E,10E)-geranylgeranyl diphosphate + diphosphate." [RHEA:17653]
comment: The catalyzed reaction forms (free) geranylgeranyl diphosphate. There is no relationship between this activity and protein farnesyltransferase activity, GO:0004660, where the catalyzed reaction transfers a farnesyl group from farnesyl diphosphate to a target protein. Note that this term has a MetaCyc pathway reference as the pathway only has a single step.
