COMMENTARY hide
LITERATURE
biofuel production
enzyme establishes a possible route for biological production of petroleum based fuels and plastics by producing isobutene enzymatically
drug development
-
siRNAs targeting mevalonate (diphospho) decarboxylase (MVD) are found to inhibit Dengue virus replication in a stable A549 subgenomic Renilla replicon cell line (Rluc-replicon) and in naive A549 cells after dengue type 2 (DEN-2) New Guinea C (NGC) live virus infection, knock down of mevalonate (diphospho) decarboxylase can inhibit dengue viral replication
medicine
the upregulation of microRNA-214 and downregulation of mevalonate diphosphate decarboxylase transcription in the liver both play a role in the development of hypocholesterolemia in stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats
pharmacology
-
the enzyme is an antibiotic target, since inhibition prevents the production of isopentenyl diphosphate
synthesis
Agrobacterium rhizogenes-mediated transformation and overexpression in Panax ginseng hairy roots leads to 4.4fold higher stigmasterol content and the accumulation of phytosterols and ginsenosides
