Novel insights into structure–function mechanism and tissue‐specific expression profiling of full‐lengthdxr gene fromCymbopogon winterianus

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 325-334, January 01, 2015., 2015
The 1‐deoxy‐d‐xylulose‐5‐phosphate reductoisomerase (DXR; EC1.1.1.267), an NADPH‐dependent reductase, plays a pivotal role in the methylerythritol 4‐phosphate pathway (MEP), in the conversion of 1‐deoxy‐d‐xylulose‐5‐phosphate (DXP) into MEP.

Inhibition of human mevalonate kinase by allosteric inhibitors of farnesyl pyrophosphate synthase

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, Volume 14, Issue 8, Page 1320-1339, August 2024.
Mevalonate kinase constitutes a key regulatory step in the mevalonate pathway, an established drug target for its role in the synthesis of isoprenoid molecules. Using a structure‐based rational approach, we identified several synthetic compounds that inhibit mevalonate kinase with nanomolar potency.

Structural features and domain movements controlling substrate binding and cofactor specificity in class II HMG-CoA reductase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The key mevalonate pathway enzyme 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase (HMGR) uses the cofactor NAD(P)H to reduce HMG-CoA to mevalonate in the production of countless metabolites and natural products.
