Abstract:The archaeal mevalonate pathway is a recently discovered modified version of the eukaryotic mevalonate pathway. This pathway is widely conserved in archaea, except for some archaeal lineages possessing the eukaryotic or other modified mevalonate pathways. Although the pathway seems almost exclusive to the domain Archaea, the whole set of homologous genes of the pathway is found in the metagenome-assembled genome sequence of an uncultivated bacterium,
