Background
IDI1 encodes a peroxisomally-localized enzyme that catalyzes the interconversion of isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) to its highly electrophilic isomer, dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP), which are the substrates for the successive reaction that results in the synthesis of farnesyl diphosphate and, ultimately, cholesterol. It has been shown in peroxisomal deficiency diseases such as Zellweger syndrome and neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy that there is reduction in IPP isomerase activity. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
Function
catalytic activity:Isopentenyl diphosphate = dimethylallyl diphosphate.,cofactor:Binds 1 magnesium ion per subunit.,function:Catalyzes the 1,3-allylic rearrangement of the homoallylic substrate isopentenyl (IPP) to its highly electrophilic allylic isomer, dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP).,pathway:Isoprenoid biosynthesis; dimethylallyl-PP biosynthesis; dimethylallyl-PP from isopentenyl-PP: step 1/1.,similarity:Belongs to the IPP isomerase type 1 family.,subunit:Monomer.,
