Active Site Loop Dynamics of PriB, a C-prenyltransferase [PDF]
Numerous biological functions are demonstrated by prenylated natural compounds, such as prenylated indole analogs. Natural product biosynthesis and modification of structures are significantly influenced by prenyltransferases.

Structure of bifunctional variediene synthase yields unique insight on biosynthetic diterpene assembly and cyclization [PDF]
An unusual family of bifunctional terpene synthases has been identified in which a prenyltransferase assembles 5-carbon precursors to form C20 geranylgeranyl diphosphate (GGPP), which is then converted into a polycyclic product by a cyclase.

Characterization of a Cis-Prenyltransferase from Lilium longiflorum Anther
A group of prenyltransferases catalyze chain elongation of farnesyl diphosphate (FPP) to designated lengths via consecutive condensation reactions with specific numbers of isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP).

Structure and Mechanism of PhdC, a Prenylated-Flavin Maturase. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Prenylated flavin mononucleotide (prFMN) is a modified flavin cofactor required by the UbiD family of (de)carboxylase enzymes. While the reduced prFMNH2 form is produced by the flavin prenyltransferase UbiX, the corresponding two‐electron oxidized prFMNiminium form is required to support UbiD catalysis. Thus, oxidative maturation of prFMNH2 is
