Mutation and inhibition studies of mevalonate 5-diphosphate decarboxylase

Mevalonate 5-diphosphate decarboxylase plays an important role in regulating cholesterol biosynthesis, which was studied through incubation with various synthetic substrate analogs and characterization of mutated enzymes. The results are potentially useful for further developing inhibitors that block the mevalonate pathway which is a drug target for treating cardiovascular disease and cancer.
