MVD - mevalonate diphosphate decarboxylase Gene
Also Known as MPD; MDDase; POROK7; FP17780
Species: Homo sapiens
About MVD
This gene has 17 transcripts (splice variants), 199 orthologues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 12.6), duodenum (RPKM 12.3) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
The enzyme mevalonate pyrophosphate decarboxylase catalyzes the conversion of mevalonate pyrophosphate into isopentenyl pyrophosphate in one of the early steps in Cholesterol biosynthesis. It decarboxylates and dehydrates its substrate while hydrolyzing ATP. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
