Description

Mev Protein CAS NO 148266-30-2 is a high-purity biochemical intermediate, also known as Mevalonolactone, which serves as a critical precursor in the biosynthesis of isoprenoids and sterols. Its primary value lies in enabling advanced research and production in metabolic pathway studies and pharmaceutical synthesis. This compound is essential for biotechnology, pharmaceutical R&D, and fine chemical synthesis sectors requiring precise control over mevalonate pathway intermediates.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key precursor in the synthesis of statins and other cholesterol-lowering agents targeting the HMG-CoA reductase pathway.
• Biochemical Research: Essential substrate for studying the mevalonate pathway, isoprenoid biosynthesis, and sterol metabolism in vitro.
• Enzymology Studies: Used as a standard or substrate in assays for enzymes like mevalonate kinase and mevalonate-5-phosphate decarboxylase.
• Metabolic Engineering: Building block in microbial fermentation processes engineered to produce high-value terpenoids and isoprenoids.
• Fine Chemical Synthesis: Starting material for the preparation of specialized chemicals with isoprene units.
• Reference Standard: Serves as a certified reference material (CRM) for quality control and analytical method development in pharmaceutical labs.

Quality Control

Our Mev Protein is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and chiral purity verification, to ensure it meets the stringent requirements for research and synthesis. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, confirming identity, purity, and conformance to specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed in a dry environment to prevent moisture absorption. For long-term storage, consider using a desiccant.
