Cloning and Characterization of the Gene Encoding 3-hydroxy-3- Methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) Reductase from Fritillaria Cirrhosa D. Don

ABSTRACT The enzyme 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase (HMGR; EC1.1.1.34) catalyzes the first committed step of isoprenoids biosynthesis in Mevalonate (MVA) pathway. Here we report for the first time the cloning and characterization of a full-length cDNA encoding HMGR from Fritillaria cirrhosa...
