Background
Function | FUNCTION: Catalyzes the phosphorylation of mevalonate to mevalonate 5-phosphate, a key step in isoprenoid and cholesterol biosynthesis (PubMed:9325256, PubMed:18302342, PubMed:9392419, PubMed:11278915). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11278915, ECO:0000269|PubMed:18302342, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9325256, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9392419}. |
Pathway | Isoprenoid biosynthesis; isopentenyl diphosphate biosynthesis via mevalonate pathway; isopentenyl diphosphate from (R)-mevalonate: step 1/3. |
Protein Families | GHMP kinase family, Mevalonate kinase subfamily |
