3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase in human liver microsomes: active and inactive forms and cross-reactivity with antibody against rat liver enzyme.

3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase, the enzyme catalyzing the rate-limiting step in cholesterol biosynthesis, exists in one active (dephosphorylated) and one inactive (phosphorylated) form in liver microsomes obtained from several animal species. The present study was undertak...
