Function of your protein
The protein of interest is the enzyme mevalonate 3,5-bisphosphate decarboxylase. The MVA3,5-bisphosphate decarboxylase enzyme was observed in Thermoplasma-type MVA pathway, specifically as a catalytic enzyme in the MBD reaction. The basic function of MVA3,5-bisphosphate decarboxylase is to catalyze the removal of the phosphate group from the 3rd carbon of mevalonate 3,5-bisphosphate (MVA3,5BP). The enzyme also accompanies the decarboxylation of the substrate. MVA 3,5-bisphosphate decarboxylase acts upon MVA3,5BP to produce isopentnyl phosphate (IP), PO4, and CO2 in the MBD reaction.

Biological relevance and broader implications
Important amino acids
Ligand OLA is hydrogen bonded to . OLA is also hydrogen bonded to a water molecule which is hydrogen bonded to Arg128.
Structural highlights
The Protein is composed of alpha helix, beta sheet, and other structures. The protein consists of two major domains. The first domain contains 9 alpha helix and 15 beta sheets. The second domain contains 9 alpha helix and 15 beta sheets. In the first domain, the amino acid Arg148 that hydrogen bonds to the OLA ligand is contained within a beta sheet.
