| Type: | Family | Name: | Geranylgeranylglyceryl phosphate synthase, Halobacteria |
| Description: | In most archaea, geranylgeranylglyceryl phosphate synthase (), also known as GGGP synthase and GGGPS, catalyses the stereospecific first step in the biosynthesis of their characteristic membrane diether lipids. However, some groups of archaeal GGGPS homologues are more closely related to certain bacterial proteins (see ) than to each other. This family represents the GGGPS family found in the Halobacteria. | Short Name: | GGGPS_Halobacteria |
