Description

mevalonate (diphospho) decarboxylase

Gene Summary

Predicted to enable Hsp70 protein binding activity; diphosphomevalonate decarboxylase activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Predicted to be involved in isopentenyl diphosphate biosynthetic process, mevalonate pathway and positive regulation of cell population proliferation. Located in cytosol. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in porokeratosis. Orthologous to human MVD (mevalonate diphosphate decarboxylase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]
