일반 설명
The HMG-CoA Reductase Assay Kit is an important tool for the basic research of cholesterol and other related metabolic pathways.
애플리케이션
The HMGR activity kit is designed for the detection of HMG-CoA reductase activity. A major function of the kit is to screen for various inhibitors and activators of the purified catalytic subunit of the enzyme, HMG-CoA reductase, which may play a crucial role in therapeutics. The assay is based on the spectrophotometric measurement of the decrease in absorbance at 340 nm, which represents the oxidation of NADPH by the catalytic subunit of HMGR in the presence of the substrate HMG-CoA.
생화학적/생리학적 작용
HMGR (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase) is a transmembrane glycoprotein located on the endoplasmic reticulum. This enzyme catalyzes the four-electron reduction of HMG-CoA to coenzyme A (CoA) and mevalonate, which is the rate-limiting step in sterol biosynthesis. The activity of HMGR is controlled through synthesis, degradation, and phosphorylation in order to maintain the concentration of mevalonate derived products. In addition to the physiological regulation of HMGR, the human enzyme has been targeted successfully by drugs in the clinical treatment of high serum cholesterol levels. Controlling serum cholesterol levels has an important therapeutic role since hypercholesterolemia often leads to the development of atherosclerosis and subsequently to cardiovascular pathologies, which might result in myocardial infarction and stroke. It has been suggested that a disturbance of cholesterol homeostasis contributes to the development of a chronic inflammatory state.

In all eucaryotic cell types analyzed, proliferations of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) can be induced by increasing the levels of certain integral ER proteins. One of the best characterized of these proteins is HMG-CoA reductase, which catalyzes the rate-limiting step

Radioisotope-based and mass spectrometry coupled to chromatographic techniques are the conventional methods for monitoring HMG-CoA reductase (HMGR) activity. Irrespective of offering adequate sensitivity, these methods are often cumbersome and time-consuming, requiring the handling of radiolabeled chemicals or elaborate ad-hoc derivatizing

In higher plants, fungi, and animals isoprenoids are derived from the mevalonate pathway. The carboxylic acid mevalonate is formed from acetyl-CoA and acetoacetyl-CoA via the intermediate 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA). The four-electron reduction of HMG-CoA to mevalonate, which utilizes two
