The regulation of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase in the isolated perfused rat liver.
The effect of perfusion of an isolated rat liver on hepatic 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase was studied. In liver removed during the basal period of the diurnal cycle of enzyme activity, a 227 +/- 41% increase in enzyme activity occurred after 3 h of a plasma-free perfusion. This could be prevented by the addition of cycloheximide or pure cholesterol (dispersed with lecithin) to...
متن کاملRegulation of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase mRNA levels in rat liver.
Addition of cholestyramine or cholestyramine plus mevinolin to the diet has been reported to increase the activity and mass of rat liver 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase. The present data show that these same dietary manipulations cause an induction of functional reductase mRNA. RNA was isolated from rat livers and added to an in vitro translation system, and the reductase was immunopre...
متن کاملProperties of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase solubilized from rat liver and hepatoma.
In hepatomas, the activity of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase, the rate-controlling enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis, is not normally suppressed by cholesterol. To examine the biochemical mechanism of this loss of feedback control of cholesterol synthesis, a comparison was made of the properties of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase after solubilization and partia...
متن کاملAltered kinetic properties of rat liver 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase following dietary manipulations.
The microsomal enzyme 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the cholesterogenic pathway and was proposed to be composed in situ of 2 noncovalently linked subunits (Edwards, P.A., Kempner, E.S., Lan, S.-F., and Erickson, S.K. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 10278-10282). In the present report, the activities and kinetic properties of HMG-CoA red...
متن کاملPurification of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase from rat liver.
A procedure for the purification of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase [mevalonate: NADP+ oxidoreductase (CoA-acylating); EC 1.1.1.34] solubilized from rat liver microsomes is reported. This enzyme has a specific activity of 9,000-10,000 nmol of mevalonate formed per min/mg of protein. This represents a 4100-fold purification over the activity in microsomes, and a specific activity...
