Regulation of vertebrate liver HMG-CoA reductase via reversible modulation of its catalytic activity
We have investigated the comparative biochemistry of in vitro regulation of HMG-CoA reductase (EC 1.1.1.34) in microsomal preparations from the livers of nine vertebrates. In all instances, reductase activity was rapidly and profoundly decreased by addition of MgATP. Reductase activities were restor...
