Cholesterol Biosynthesis (Mevalonate Pathway) Lipid Metabolism · Cytosol + ER

step 8 Reversible

IPP ⇌ dimethylallyl pyrophosphate (DMAPP)

Converts Isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP) into Dimethylallyl pyrophosphate (DMAPP)

› Notes

Isopentenyl pyrophosphate isomerase rearranges IPP to the allylic isomer DMAPP. No net ATP or NADPH is required.
