The role of peroxisomes in sterol biosynthesis by the cellular slime mould Dictyostelium discoideum
In eukaryotic cells, the mevalonate pathway of isoprenoid biosynthesis provides the cell with essential precursors for several cellular processes. For example, one product, FDP (farnesyl diphosphate) is a fundamental precursor for sterol biosynthesis and it is also used for protein prenylation. In t...
