In enzymology, an isopentenyl-diphosphate Delta-isomerase (EC 5.3.3.2, see also: Isopentenyl Pyrophosphate) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- isopentenyl diphosphate dimethylallyl diphosphate
Hence, this enzyme has one substrate, isopentenyl diphosphate, and one product, dimethylallyl diphosphate.
This enzyme belongs to the family of isomerases, specifically those intramolecular oxidoreductases transposing C=C bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is isopentenyl-diphosphate Delta3-Delta2-isomerase. Other names in common use include isopentenylpyrophosphate Delta-isomerase, methylbutenylpyrophosphate isomerase, and isopentenylpyrophosphate isomerase. This enzyme participates in biosynthesis of steroids and terpenoid biosynthesis.
