Structural insight into substrate and product binding in an archaeal mevalonate kinase. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
Mevalonate kinase (MK) is a key enzyme of the mevalonate pathway, which produces the biosynthetic precursors for steroids, including cholesterol, and isoprenoids, the largest class of natural products.

Weekly oral alendronate in mevalonate kinase deficiency [PDF]

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2013
Mevalonate kinase deficiency (MKD) is caused by mutations in the MVK gene, encoding the second enzyme of mevalonate pathway, which results in subsequent shortage of downstream compounds, and starts in childhood with febrile attacks, skin, joint, and gastrointestinal symptoms, sometimes induced by vaccinations.For a history of early-onset corticosteroid-

Mevalonate kinase deficiencies: from mevalonic aciduria to hyperimmunoglobulinemia D syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2006
Mevalonic aciduria (MVA) and hyperimmunoglobulinemia D syndrome (HIDS) represent the two ends of a clinical spectrum of disease caused by deficiency of mevalonate kinase (MVK), the first committed enzyme of cholesterol biosynthesis.

Activation of the plant mevalonate pathway by extracellular ATP

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Products of the mevalonate pathway support plant development. Here the authors show that the extracellular ATP receptor P2K1 phosphorylates mevalonate kinase and this affects the mevalonate pathway.

Homozygous V377I mutation causing mevalonate kinase. [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Case Rep, 2022
Hyperimmunoglobulinaemia D syndrome (HIDS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the mevalonate kinase (MVK) gene, located on chromosome 12. The most common mutation identified in MVK gene so far is V377I. Compound heterozygotes that include this variant may exhibit a more severe phenotype of the disease and homozygotes are ...
