RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/C051389
Entry Term(s): DDDP synthetase; DHDDS protein, human; Dehydrodolichyl diphosphate synthase, mouse; Dhdds protein, mouse; dehydrodolichyl diphosphate synthase; dehydrodolichyl diphosphate synthase protein, human; dehydrodolichyl diphosphate synthase, rat
Registry Numbers: EC 2.5.1.-; EC 2.5.1.-
Previous Indexing: *TRANSFERASES (1987-2004)
Heading Mapped to: Alkyl and Aryl Transferases

Note: Dehydrodolichyl diphosphate (dedol-PP) synthase catalyzes cis-prenyl chain elongation to produce the polyprenyl backbone of dolichol, a glycosyl carrier lipid required for the biosynthesis of several classes of glycoproteins; DHDDS shares 41.8% homology with yeast dedol-PP synthase and 37.6% homology with E. coli UPS; RefSeq NM_024887 (human); NM_026144 (mouse)
