(E)-4-Hydroxy-3-methyl-but-2-enyl pyrophosphate(HMBPPorHMB-PP) is an intermediate of theMEP pathway(non-mevalonate pathway) of isoprenoid biosynthesis.[1][2]The enzymeHMB-PP synthase(GcpE, IspG) catalyzes the conversion of2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 2,4-cyclodiphosphate(MEcPP) into HMB-PP. HMB-PP is then converted further toisopentenyl pyrophosphate(IPP) anddimethylallyl pyrophosphate(DMAPP) byHMB-PP reductase(LytB, IspH).

HMB-PP is an essential metabolite in most pathogenic bacteria includingMycobacterium tuberculosisas well as inmalariaparasites, but is absent from the human host.[3]
HMB-PP is the physiological activator ( "phosphoantigen") for humanVγ9/Vδ2 T cells,the majorγδ T cellpopulation in peripheral blood. With a bioactivity of 0.1 nM it is 10,000-10,000,000 times more potent than any other natural compound, such asIPP or alkyl amines.HMB-PP functions in this capacity by binding the B30.2 domain ofBTN3A1.[4]
