Structural studies of terpenoid biosynthesis and bacterial cell division

The objective of this work is to investigate the structures of two nucleotide binding proteins: mevalonate kinase (MVK) and FtsZ. MVK is the key enzyme involved in terpenoid biosynthesis. In this study, we solved the crystal structures of the M. jannaschii MVK apoprotein, as well as the protein in c...
