Comments [?]

case <OC:Gammaproteobacteria>
Function Catalyzes the sequential condensation of isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) with (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate (E,E-FPP) to yield (2Z,6Z,10Z,14Z,18Z,22Z,26Z,30Z,34E,38E)-undecaprenyl diphosphate (di-trans,octa-cis-UPP). UPP is the precursor of glycosyl carrier lipid in the biosynthesis of bacterial cell wall polysaccharide components such as peptidoglycan and lipopolysaccharide.
Catalytic activity RHEA:27551: (2E,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate + 8 isopentenyl diphosphate = di-trans,octa-cis-undecaprenyl diphosphate + 8 diphosphate
EC 2.5.1.31
else case <OC:Archaea>
Function Catalyzes the sequential condensation of isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) with geranylgeranyl diphosphate (GGPP) to yield (2Z,6Z,10Z,14Z,18Z,22Z,26Z,30E,34E,38E)-undecaprenyl diphosphate (tritrans,heptacis-UPP). It is probably the precursor of glycosyl carrier lipids.
Catalytic activity RHEA:27622: geranylgeranyl diphosphate + 7 isopentenyl diphosphate = 7 diphosphate + tri-trans,hepta-cis-undecaprenyl diphosphate
EC 2.5.1.89
else
Function Catalyzes the condensation of isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) with allylic pyrophosphates generating different type of terpenoids.
end case
Cofactor Mg(2+)
Note: Binds 2 magnesium ions per subunit.

Comments Actinomycetota possess different types of isoprenyl transferases (decaprenyl diphosphate synthase; trans,polycis-decaprenyl diphosphate synthase; (2Z,6E)-farnesyl diphosphate synthase; trans,polycis-polyprenyl diphosphate synthase) which are all homologous to ISPT in primary sequence (and match the family MF_01139) but with a different substrate specificity (isoprenyl acceptor) and chain-length determination due to a few residues.
