Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.2.0)
Predicted to enable farnesyl-diphosphate farnesyltransferase activity and squalene synthase activity. Predicted to be involved in cholesterol biosynthetic process and farnesyl diphosphate metabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within cholesterol metabolic process; isoprenoid biosynthetic process; and sterol biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; integumental system; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human FDFT1 (farnesyl-diphosphate farnesyltransferase 1).
