A 1.64-kb cDNA encoding an Arabidopsis thaliana mevalonate kinase (MK) was cloned by complementation of the erg 12-1 mutation affecting MK in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and the nucleotide sequence was determined. The longest open reading frame encodes a protein of 378 amino acids (aa) with a predicted molecular mass of 40,650 Da. A striking feature of the cDNA sequence is a long 5' untranslated region (322 bp). The deduced aa sequence reveals that the plant enzyme shows strong similarities to the yeast and mammalian enzymes, especially the strong hydrophobicity percentage and several conserved regions. Southern analysis suggests that probably only one locus exists in the A. thaliana genome.
