In enzymology a 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate cytidylyltransferase (EC 2.7.7.60) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction: 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate + CTP diphosphate + 4-(cytidine 5′-diphospho)-2-C-methyl-D-erythritol Thus the two substrates of this enzyme are CTP and 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate whereas its two products are diphosphate and 4-(cytidine 5′-diphospho)-2-C-methyl-D-erythritol.This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases specifically those transferring phosphorus-containing nucleotide groups (nucleotidyltransferases).
