The MEP pathway in plants and algae. Seven enzymes participate in the steps of the MEP pathway. DXS: 1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate synthase; DXR: 1-deoxy-D-xylulose 5-phosphate reductoisomerase; CMS: 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate cytidyltransferase; CMK: 4-(cytidine-5-diphospho)-2-C-methyl-D-erythritol kinase; MCS: 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 2,4-cyclodiphosphate synthase; HDS: 1-hydroxy-2-methyl-2-(E)-butenyl-4-diphosphate synthase; HDR: 1-hydroxy-2-methyl-2-(E)-butenyl-4-diphosphate reductase
