MEP Pathway

Nagahama MEP.jpg

A non-mevalonate (MEP) path way is a biosynthesis path way of isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) and dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP).

It is the slightly complicated synthetic path way with six intermediary metabolite before Escherichia coli synthesizes IPP and DMAPP.

A path way synthesizing same IPP and DMAPP includes a mevalonate path way.

The difference of these path way is two.

The first difference.

A starting material is the acetyl CoA of 3 molecules by the mevalonate path way.

In contrast, a starting material is pyruvic acid and Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate by the non-mevalonate pathway.

The second difference.

It is a mevalonate pathway to make mevalonic acid a biosynthesis intermediate.

That does not make a biosynthesis intermediate is non-mevalonate pathway.

Many bacteria and chloroplast of plants has the non-mevalonate pathway.

Escherichia coli synthesizes IPP and DMAPP necessary to produce beta-carotene and quinone or terpene by non-mevalonate pathway.

Project Description

Tell us about your project, describe what moves you and why this is something important for your team.


What should this page contain?
  • A clear and concise description of your project.
  • A detailed explanation of why your team chose to work on this particular project.
  • References and sources to document your research.
  • Use illustrations and other visual resources to explain your project.

Advice on writing your Project Description

We encourage you to put up a lot of information and content on your wiki, but we also encourage you to include summaries as much as possible. If you think of the sections in your project description as the sections in a publication, you should try to be consist, accurate and unambiguous in your achievements.

Judges like to read your wiki and know exactly what you have achieved. This is how you should think about these sections; from the point of view of the judge evaluating you at the end of the year.


References

iGEM teams are encouraged to record references you use during the course of your research. They should be posted somewhere on your wiki so that judges and other visitors can see how you though about your project and what works inspired you.
