null Catalysis of the transfer of an alkyl or aryl (but not methyl) group from one compound (donor) to another (acceptor). Catalysis of the reaction: trans,trans-farnesyl diphosphate + isopentenyl diphosphate = diphosphate + geranylgeranyl diphosphate. Catalysis of the reaction: 2 farnesyl diphosphate = diphosphate + presqualene diphosphate. Catalysis of the transfer of a prenyl group from one compound (donor) to another (acceptor).
