1-Deoxy-d-xylulose 5-phosphate is a biosynthetic intermediate in the non-mevalonate pathway.[1]
Function[edit]
The non-mevalonate pathway intermediate 1-deoxy-d-xylulose 5-phosphate (DXP) acts as a precursor to make isoprenoids in many species such as bacteria, plants, and apicomplexan parasites which contribute to biological diversity.[2] Specifically, the versatility of intermediate DXP as a starting material can be illustrated in other metabolic application such as improving the production of compounds known as sesquiterpenoids utilizing uncommon carbon sources methane 4,7 in specific bacteria.[3]
