Facts about Rab proteins geranylgeranyltransferase component A 1.
The component A is believed to be regenerated by shifting its prenylated Rab back to the donor membrane. In any case, a pre-formed complex comprising CHM and the Rab GGTase dimer (RGGT or component B) can bind to and prenylate Rab proteins; this alternate pathway is proposed to be the predominant pathway for Rab protein geranylgeranylation.
