Isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP) is a key molecule in isoprenoid (a diverse class of over 30,000 natural products) biosynthesis.
It consists of a five-carbon (isopentenyl) unit attached to a pyrophosphate group
The synthesis of Isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP) occurs via the HMG-CoA reductase (HMGCR) (pathway) or the Methylerythritol phosphate (MEP) pathway (also known as the non-mevalonate pathway).
The HMG-CoA reductase (HMGCR) (pathway) is predominantly found in [eukaryotes](brain://WfBQdDjMdFqkdW-M65YJ2Q/Euka…
