Description
Performs the first committed step in the biosynthesis of isoprene-containing compounds such as sterols and terpenoids (By similarity). Component of the triterpene saponins (e.g. ginsenosides or panaxosides) and phytosterols biosynthetic pathways (PubMed:29378087). Catalyzes the conversion of mevalonate diphosphate to isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) (PubMed:29509695).
Family
Belongs to the diphosphomevalonate decarboxylase family.
