Polyisoprenoids: Structure, biosynthesis and function
Abstract
The polyisoprenoid alcohols and their derivatives are highlighted here. These linear polymers of isoprenoid residues are widespread in nature from bacteria to human cells. This review presents their structures, distribution and biogenesis. Attention will be focused on the biosynthesis of polyisoprenoid alcohols in plants in the context of two coexisting isoprenoid pathways, mevalonate and the recently described methylerythritol phosphate pathway. Structural aspects including modeling of the polyisoprenoid conformation will be presented and finally the postulated biological role of polyisoprenoid alcohols will be discussed including polyisoprenylation of proteins.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
