Human ISPD Is a Cytidyltransferase Required for Dystroglycan O-Mannosylation. [PDF]
A unique, unsolved O-mannosyl glycan on α-dystroglycan is essential for its interaction with protein ligands in the extracellular matrix. Defective O-mannosylation leads to a group of muscular dystrophies, called dystroglycanopathies.

ISPD mutations account for a small proportion of Italian Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy cases [PDF]
Background: Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy (LGMD), caused by defective aα-dystroglycan (aα-DG) glycosylation, was recently associated with mutations in Isoprenoid synthase domain-containing (ISPD) and GDP-mannose pyrophosphorylase B (GMPPB) genes.

Characterization and inhibitor evaluation of IspD and IspE enzymes from the non-mevalonate pathway [PDF]
There is an immediate need for new antibiotics. Antimicrobial resistance is rising at an alarming rate. In addition, certain select agents are a risk for bioterrorism that necessitate the discovery of new antibiotics. The methylerythritol phosphate (MEP)

ISPD produces CDP-ribitol used by FKTN and FKRP to transfer ribitol phosphate onto α-dystroglycan
Mutations in genes required for the glycosylation of α-dystroglycan lead to muscle and brain diseases known as dystroglycanopathies. However, the precise structure and biogenesis of the assembled glycan are not completely understood.
