Overview

Alkaline hydrolysis of mevalonolactone gives mevalonate. Mevalonate is a precursor of farnesyl and geranylgeranyl pyrophosphates. These pyrophosphates are required for protein prenylation. 

Application

(±)-Mevalonolactone is used to:

• study the effect of statin on the prenylation of Ras and Rho GTPases

• analyse the isoprenoid biosynthesis pathways in Listeria monocytogenes

• study the the effects of statins on proliferation and migration of HUVECs (HGF-induced human umbilical vein endothelial cells)
