Summary
Enables hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA reductase (NADPH) activity. Predicted to be involved in ergosterol biosynthetic process and isoprenoid biosynthetic process. Located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane and nuclear envelope. Part of proteasome complex. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including asthma; coronary artery disease (multiple); dementia; diabetes mellitus (multiple); and neurodegenerative disease (multiple). Orthologous to human HMGCR (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

Preferred Names

NP_013555.1
  • HMG-CoA reductase; converts HMG-CoA to mevalonate, a rate-limiting step in sterol biosynthesis; one of two isozymes; overproduction induces assembly of peripheral ER membrane arrays and short nuclear-associated membrane stacks; forms foci at nuclear periphery upon DNA replication stress; primarily expressed on the peri-membrane side of the ER; human homolog HMGCR can complement yeast hmg2 mutant
