Bioactivity | 2-C-Methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate is a metabolite intermediate exclusive to the non-mevalonate MEP pathway, predominantly found in prokaryotes, serving as a precursor for the synthesis of isoprenoids and non-isoprenoids, including vitamins; its absence in humans makes it a promising target for the development of bacterium-specific drugs aimed at treating infectious diseases. |
