| R-MVA-Li Usage And Synthesis |
| Uses | Mevalonic acid may be used as a reference material in assays for the separation or detection of mevalonic acid. Mevalonic acid is a precursor of isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP) and the mevalonate pathway which leads to isoprenoid biosynthesis. Mevalonic acid may be used as a substrate to identify and characterize mevalonate kinase(s). | | Biochem/physiol Actions | Mevalonic acid, is an intermediate in the mevalonate pathway, producing terpenes and steroids. This function provides treatment options metabolic disorders , R-mevalonate accumulates in patients with the autosomal recessively inherited mevalonic acidurias, an inborn error of cholesterol and nonsterol isoprene biosynthesis. |
