Notes: Geranylgeranyl alcohol is a diterpenoid produced through the isoprenoid pathway. It can be phosphorylated to give geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate (GGPP; Item No. 63330), a precursor for geranylgeranylation, a form of protein prenylation.{24323} GGPP is also an intermediate in biosynthetic pathways for isoprenoids, carotenoids, plant hormones, and antibiotics.
