Hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase (HMG-R) is a key enzyme in the mevalonate pathway, from which thousands of molecules are derived including cholesterol and prenyl moieties. The regulation of HMG-R is complex and includes feedback control, cross-regulation by independent bio-chemical processes and contra-regulation of separate isozymes. From studies in yeast, these separate modes of regulation can be considered in an integrated fashion.
羟甲基戊二酰辅酶A还原酶(HMG-R)是甲羟戊酸途径中的关键酶,该途径可衍生出数千种分子,包括胆固醇和异戊二烯基部分。HMG-R的调节很复杂,包括反馈控制、独立生化过程的交叉调节以及不同同工酶的反向调节。从酵母研究中可知,这些不同的调节模式可以综合起来考虑。
