Isoprenoid compounds are the most diverse family of metabolites that are found in nature(1). Here we look at IPP isomerase it's activity is found in a large number of essential processes and is a central posistion in terpenoid biosynthesis(1).IPP can be isomerized to DMAPP by Isopentenyl diphosphate(IDI)isomerase; which is a metal-ion requiring enzyme(3) utilizing mg or mn. | Isoprenoid compounds are the most diverse family of metabolites that are found in nature(1).

IPP isomerase is composed of 182 amino acids and folds into a globular protein(2). Conformational changes create a distorted octohedral metal cordination site composed of residues H25, H32, H69, E114, and E116(2).As stated above the enzyme requires metal co-factors in the active site; which also consists of Cys and Glu catalytic residues(1). Studies show that the enzyme Km at the optimal pH 6.3 and the pI between 6.0-6.2 is 2.7iM and the Molecular weight is roughly 82 500(1).The size of the mammalian enzyme is 22kDa(1) | IPP isomerase is composed of 182 amino acids and folds into a globular protein(2).
