A hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase inhibitor synthesized by yeasts [PDF]

open access: yesFEMS Microbiology Letters, 1995
Screening of different yeast species showed that they are able to synthesize hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA (HMGCoA) reductase inhibitors. Crude methanol extracts and the purified inhibitors from Pichia labacensis and Candida cariosilignicola were tested for their biological activity on the solubilized microsomal HMGCoA reductase from Chinese hamster ovary ...

Regulation of hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase in rat leukocytes

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1977
Methods were developed for the assay of hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase (NADPH) activity in microsomes from rat leukocytes. The activity in freshly isolated leukocytes is low compared to rat liver but can be assayed reliably. The patterns of response of leukocyte reductase in the assay to variation in substrate concentration, protein concentration,

High‐Altitude Adaptation of Frogs (Case Study: Nanorana parkeri): From Physiological Phenotypes to AltitudeOmics

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
High altitudes are challenging for the animals that inhabit these environments. The Xizang plateau frog (Nanorana parkeri) survives in high‐altitude environments through a synergistic strategy of metabolic remodeling and protein expression adjustment to optimize energy efficiency and enhance cellular protection.

Integrated genomic and transcriptomic approaches reveal oxidative stress adaptation mechanisms in a mesotrione‐resistant Amaranthus tuberculatus biotype

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 7, Page 6387-6398, July 2026.
Integrated GWAS and transcriptomics in a Canadian waterhemp biotype reveal mesotrione resistance is polygenic and metabolically driven. Significant SNPs and 187 herbicide‐responsive genes point to enhanced redox homeostasis, glutathione‐linked detoxification, lipid/secondary metabolism, and oxidative stress responses. Resistance arises from coordinated,

Tomato hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase is required early in fruit development but not during ripening. [PDF]

open access: yesThe Plant Cell, 1989
The activity of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (HMGR) and the level of its mRNA have been determined at various stages of tomato fruit development. The HMGR reaction makes mevalonate, a necessary component in the synthesis of all isoprene containing compounds, such as sterols and carotenoids.

Laboratory tests and clinical significance of anti-3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase antibody

open access: yesChinese Journal of Contemporary Neurology and Neurosurgery, 2016
Anti-3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (HMGCR) antibody is a newly recognized autoantibody, which is associated with the use of statins and is considered as an immunological marker of necrotizing autoimmune myopathy (NAM).

Crystal Structure of a Statin Bound to a Class II Hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA Reductase

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2003
Hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA (HMG-CoA) reductase is the primary target in the current clinical treatment of hypercholesterolemias with specific inhibitors of the "statin" family. Statins are excellent inhibitors of the class I (human) enzyme but relatively poor inhibitors of the class II enzymes of important bacterial pathogens.

Association mapping for hop cone chemistry and morphology identifies natural beneficial allele stacks

open access: yesThe Plant Genome, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Efforts are underway to increase the efficiency and precision of selection hop (Humulus lupulus L.) breeding using genomics. Little is known, however, about the genetic control of important traits like α‐and β‐acids contents, oil content, and cone morphological characteristics, all of which play an important role in determining the utility and

Statin Therapy for Primary Prevention and Clinical Outcomes in Adults Aged 80 and Older: A Retrospective Comparative Cohort Study

open access: yesJournal of the American Geriatrics Society, Volume 74, Issue 6, Page 1687-1691, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Evidence supporting the use of statins for primary prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD) in individuals aged ≥ 80 years remains limited. This study aimed to evaluate the long‐term clinical benefits and safety of statins for primary prevention in patients aged 80 years and older.
