General Information

EC Number General Information Comment Organism
1.1.1.34 metabolism HMGR catalyzes the four-electron reduction of HMGCoA to mevalonate, the committed step in the biosynthesis of sterols. Mevalonate is a precursor of isoprenoids, a class of compounds involved in several cellular functions such as cholesterol synthesis and growth control Homo sapiens
1.1.1.34 additional information modelling of the active site using crystal stucture of the enzyme with bound inhibitor simvastatin, PDB ID 1HW9, overview Homo sapiens
1.1.1.34 physiological function within cells, the concentration of mevalonate and therefore that of its metabolic products is tightly controlled through the activity of HMGR, an enzyme that catalyzes the four-electron reduction of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA to mevalonate Homo sapiens
