Homogentisate 12-dioxygenase (homogentisic acid oxidase homogentisicase) is an enzyme which catalyzes the conversion of homogentisate to 4-maleylacetoacetate. Homogentisate 12-dioxygenase or HGD is involved in the catabolism of aromatic rings more […]

Jun dimerization protein 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the JDP2 gene.The Jun dimerization protein is a member of the AP-1 family of transcription factors.

In enzymology an L-xylulose reductase (EC 1.1.1.10) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reactionxylitol + NADP+ L-xylulose + NADPH + H+Thus the two substrates of this enzyme are xylitol […]

Pyrophosphomevalonate decarboxylase (or mevalonate-5-pyrophosphate decarboxylase) is an enzyme in the mevalonate pathway.

Fructose-bisphosphate aldolase (EC 4.1.2.13) often just aldolase is an enzyme catalyzing a reversible reaction that splits the aldol fructose 16-bisphosphate into the triose phosphates dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate […]

Phosphomevalonate kinase is an enzyme in the mevalonate pathway.

Mevalonate kinase is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the MVK gene. Mevalonate kinases are found in a wide variety of organisms from bacteria to mammals. This enzyme […]

In molecular biology HMG-CoA synthase EC 2.3.3.10 is an enzyme which catalyzes the reaction in which Acetyl-CoA condenses with acetoacetyl-CoA to form 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA (HMG-CoA). It is the second reaction in […]

Isopentenyl-diphosphate delta isomerase (or isopentenyl pyrophosphate isomerase) (IPP isomerase) is an isomerase that catalyzes the conversion of the relatively un-reactive isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP) to the more-reactive electrophile dimethylallyl pyrophosphate (DMAPP). […]

Thiolases also known as acetyl-coenzyme A acetyltransferases (ACAT) are enzymes which converts two units of acetyl-CoA to acetoacetyl CoA in the mevalonate pathway. Thiolases are ubiquitous enzymes that have key […]
