Biochem/physiol Actions
Metabolite of the non-mevalonate pathway, generally found in prokaryotes, as precursor to isoprenoids as well as non-isoprenoids like vitamins. As this pathway is not present in humans, it is of interest for the development of bacterium-specific drugs in the search for treatments of infectious diseases.
Other Notes
In E. coli, 1-deoxy-D-xylulose is converted into 1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate by phosphorylation of the C-5 hydroxy group by D-xylulokinase.

Recently, a mevalonate-independent pathway was discovered in bacteria and plants that leads to the formation of isopentenyl diphosphate and dimethylallyl diphosphate, the two basic precursors of isoprenoids. Although many details of the widely distributed pathway are unknown, some intermediates, mechanisms

Earlier in vivo studies have shown that the sequential action of the IspG and IspH proteins is essential for the reductive transformation of 2C-methyl-d-erythritol 2,4-cyclodiphosphate into dimethylallyl diphosphate and isopentenyl diphosphate via 1-hydroxy-2-methyl-2-(E)-butenyl 4-diphosphate. A recombinant fusion protein comprising maltose

The incorporation of [1-13C]- and [2,3,4,5-13C4]1-deoxy-D-xylulose into beta-carotene, lutein, phytol, and sitosterol in a cell culture of Catharanthus roseus was analyzed by NMR spectroscopy. The labeling patterns of the isoprene precursors, isopentenyl pyrophosphate and dimethylallyl pyrophosphate, were obtained from the

In plants, two pathways are utilized for the synthesis of isopentenyl diphosphate, the universal precursor for isoprenoid biosynthesis. The key enzyme of the cytoplasmic mevalonic acid (MVA) pathway is 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (HMGR). Treatment of Tobacco Bright Yellow-2 (TBY-2) cells

Planta, 212(3), 416-423 (2001-04-06)
The biosynthesis of the C5 building block of isoprenoids, isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP), proceeds in higher plants via two basically different pathways; in the cytosolic compartment sterols are formed via mevalonate (MVA), whereas in the plastids the isoprenoids are formed via
