Introduction | Phosphomevalonate kinase (PMVK) is a cytosolic enzyme. PMVK is expressed highly in the heart, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney and pancreas and slightly lower in the brain, placenta, and lung. PMVK catalyzes the conversion of mevalonate 5-phosphate into mevalonate 5-diphosphate in the fifth reaction of the cholesterol biosynthetic pathway. Induced by sterol, PMVK participates in isopentenyl diphosphate biosynthesis via the mevalonate pathway. |
Synonyms | Phosphomevalonate kinase, PMKase, hPMK, PMVK, PMKI, PMK, PMKA, PMKASE, HUMPMKI. |
Source | Escherichia Coli. |
Physical Appearance | Sterile Filtered colorless solution. |
Formulation | The PMVK solution (1 mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.5), 1mM DTT, 10% glycerol and 0.1M NaCl. |
Stability | PMVK should be stored desiccated below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
