Function
[ISPD_ARATH] Enzyme of the plastid non-mevalonate pathway for isoprenoid biosynthesis that catalyzes the formation of 4-diphosphocytidyl-2-C-methyl-D-erythritol from CTP and 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate (MEP). Is essential for chloroplast development and required for pigments and gibberellins biosynthesis.[1] [2] [3]
