2-C-Methylerythritol 4-phosphate

2-C-Methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate (MEP) is an intermediate on the MEP pathway (non-mevalonate pathway) of isoprenoid precursor biosynthesis. It is the first committed metabolite on that pathway on the route to IPP and DMAPP. == See also == DXP reductoisomerase MEP pathway (formerly known as the non-mevalonate pathway) Fosmidomycin == References == == External links == 2-C-methylerythritol+4-phosphate at the U.S. National Library of Medicine Medical Subject Headings (MeSH)
