1-Deoxy-D-xyluiose 5-phosphate is biotransformed to 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate in a single step in the presence of NADPH by a new recombinant enzyme named l-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate reductoisomerase purified from Escherichia coli.

Optically pure 1-deoxy-D-xylulose, a key metabolite for feeding experiments in the methylerythritol phosphate pathway for isoprenoid biosynthesis, is conveniently synthesised from 1,2-O-isopropylidene-a-D-xylofuranose or from D-arabinose. This renders labelling with hydrogen isotopes possible.
