Comment typeDescription
Catalytic ActivityATP + (R)-mevalonate = ADP + (R)-5- phosphomevalonate.
Enzyme RegulationIts activity is inhibited in vitro by geranyl pyrophosphate (GPP) and farnesyl pyrophosphate (FPP) that bind competitively at the ATP-binding site on the enzyme.
PathwayIsoprenoid biosynthesis; isopentenyl diphosphate biosynthesis via mevalonate pathway; isopentenyl diphosphate from (R)-mevalonate: step 1/3.
