Geranyl diphosphate
Geranyl diphosphate is a key intermediate in the isoprenoid biosynthesis pathway (IBP). HY-114295 plays key roles in cellular metabolism and is responsible for the production of both sterol and non-sterol isoprenoids.
The free form of the compound is prone to instability, it is advisable to consider the stable salt form (Geranyl diphosphate triammonium) that retains the same biological activity.
