Gene: [05p1/HMGCS1] 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-Coenzyme A synthase 1 (soluble);


GEN

The characteristic feature of the HMGCS and HMGCR (3-hydroxy-3- methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase) genes is the 5'-untranslated region complex structure containing multiple transcription initiation sites and an intron with a variable donor splice site."

FUN

[1] The HMGCS enzyme is involved in mevalonic acid metabolism as well as in biosynthesis of cholesterol and ubiquinone progenitors.
[2] Systematic name: 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A acetoacetyl-CoA lyase. The catalyzed reaction: (S)-3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA + CoA = = acetyl-CoA + H(2)O + acetoacetyl-CoA."

FAG

[1] Two consecutive reactions in cholesterol biosynthesis are catalyzed by 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A synthase and 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase, which are encoded by unlinked genes located on the different arms of chr 5 (GEM:05q1/HMGCR).
