Improved methods for the assay and activation of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase.
Journal of Lipid Research, 1979 A simple and rapid mixed-phase method for the quantitative assay of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl (HMG)-CoA reductase and a procedure for the efficient reactivation of Mg-ATP-inactivated microsomal HMG-CoA reductase by potato acid phosphatase are described.

Isolation and purification of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A by ion-exchange chromatography
Journal of Lipid Research, 1981 For precise determination of the catalytic activity of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase (EC 1.1.1.34), the HMG-CoA employed as substrate must be free of HMG, CoA, and other inhibitors of HMG-CoA reductase activity.
