UniProtKB description: Performs the first committed step in the biosynthesis of isoprene-containing compounds such as sterols and terpenoids (PubMed:10344201, PubMed:26216978). Is specific for (R)-5-diphosphomevalonate (MVAPP). The catalytic efficiency with (R)-5-phosphomevalonate (MVAP) as substrate is 10000-fold lower than for MVAPP (PubMed:26216978). Can complement a yeast mutant defective in MVD activity (PubMed:10344201).
