Improved methods for the solubilization and assay of hepatic 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase.
A method for solubilizing HMG-CoA reductase is described that reproducibly yielded approximately 190% of the activity assayed in rat liver microsomes. Optimal solubilization occurred when microsomal membranes were frozen at a fixed concentration, thawed, homogenized in a buffer containing 50% glycer...
