Mvd - mevalonate (diphospho) decarboxylase Gene

Also Known as Mpd

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 192156

Summary

Predicted to enable HSP70 protein binding activity; diphosphomevalonate decarboxylase activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Predicted to be involved in isopentenyl diphosphate biosynthetic process, mevalonate pathway and positive regulation of cell population proliferation. Predicted to act upstream of or within Cholesterol biosynthetic process. Located in cytosol. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in porokeratosis. Orthologous to human MVD (mevalonate diphosphate decarboxylase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
