General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the formation of 4-diphosphocytidyl-2-C-methyl-D-erythritol from CTP and 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate (MEP). Involved in pigments and gibberellins biosynthesis. Ref.1 Ref.2

Catalytic activity

CTP + 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate = diphosphate + 4-(cytidine 5'-diphospho)-2-C-methyl-D-erythritol.

Cofactor

Divalent metal cations. Magnesium, nickel and manganese are the most effective. Cobalt and calcium are only minimally effective. Ref.1

Pathway

Isoprenoid biosynthesis; isopentenyl diphosphate biosynthesis via DXP pathway; isopentenyl diphosphate from 1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate: step 2/6.

Subcellular location

Plastidchloroplast Probable.

Tissue specificity

Expressed in leaves, stems and flowers, but not in roots. Ref.2

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the IspD family.

Biophysicochemical properties

Kinetic parameters:

KM=114 µM for CTP Ref.1

KM=500 µM for MEP

Vmax=67 µmol/min/mg enzyme
