    2.5.1.41 | evolution |
diversity of thaumarchaeotal GGGP synthases in the marine water column, phylogenetic analysis and tree and correlation to the classification of shallow and deep water clusters, overview. Differences in isoprenoid glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers distributions from subsurface to deep waters that may be explained by differences in the GGGP synthase, suggesting a genetic control on isoprenoid glycerol dialkyl glycerol tetraethers distribution.

| 2.5.1.41 | physiological function |
the key enzyme catalyses the formation of an ether bond between isoprenyl diphosphate and glycerol-1-phosphate to form 3-(O-geranylgeranyl)-sn-glycerol 1-phosphate, and is the first committed step towards ether membrane lipid synthesis |
