What it does, reaction by reaction
Cholesterol Biosynthesis (Mevalonate Pathway) Lipid Metabolism · Cytosol + ER
Mevalonate + ATP → 5-phosphomevalonate + ADP
Converts Mevalonate ATP into 5-Phosphomevalonate ADP
› Notes
Mevalonate kinase phosphorylates the C5 hydroxyl group. ATP is required.
Showing all 1 reactions.
