About MVD

Cytogenetic location: 16q24.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 16:88,651,940-88,663,091 (from NCBI)

This gene has 17 transcripts (splice variants), 199 orthologues and is associated with 2 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 12.6), duodenum (RPKM 12.3) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

The Enzyme mevalonate pyrophosphate decarboxylase catalyzes the conversion of mevalonate pyrophosphate into isopentenyl pyrophosphate in one of the early steps in Cholesterol biosynthesis. It decarboxylates and dehydrates its substrate while hydrolyzing ATP. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
