Farnesyl pyrophosphate
Farnesyl pyrophosphate (FPP) is a key 15-carbon intermediate in the mevalonate pathway. It acts as an agonist for TRPM2 ion channels and serves as a crucial substrate for synthesizing cholesterol, ubiquinone, and protein prenylation. This molecule is widely used in biochemical studies of isoprenoid biosynthesis and calcium signaling in cellular models.
