| Application: |
Farnesyl diphosphate ammonium salt may be used to study the posttranslational process known as farnesylation that is used to modify important proteins such as the Ras oncogene. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: |
Farnesyl pyrophosphate is a key intermediate in the biosynthesis of more complex sesquiterpenoids, higher terpenoids, and steroids and different biological functions have been discovered for FPP and the corresponding alcohol farnesol. FPP plays an important role in the posttranslational processing of Ras proteins. Mutated forms of Ras are associated with human cancer and are therefore investigated in cancer research. |
