Description
This enzyme converts mevalonate 5-diphosphate (MVAPP) to isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) through ATP dependent decarboxylation. This enzyme belongs to the family of lyases, specifically the carboxy-lyases, which cleave carbon-carbon bonds.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC~-80 ºC.
Synonyms
pyrophosphomevalonate decarboxylase; mevalonate-5-pyrophosphate decarboxylase; pyrophosphomevalonic acid decarboxylase; 5-pyrophosphomevalonate decarboxylase; mevalonate 5-diphosphate decarboxylase; ATP:(R)-5-diphosphomevalonate carboxy-lyase (dehydrating)
Reaction
ATP + (R)-5-diphosphomevalonate = ADP + phosphate + isopentenyl diphosphate + CO2
