The Non-Mevalonate Pathway to Isoprenoid Biosynthesis: A Potential Source of New Drug Targets

The Non-Mevalonate Pathway to Isoprenoid Biosynthesis: A Potential Source of New Drug Targets

Isoprenoids are an essential class of natural products with a myriad of biological functions. All isoprenoids are assembled using two common five-carbon precursors, isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) and dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP) that are biosynthesized via two completely independent ro...
