Genes for mevalonate biosynthesis in Phycomyces.

Molecular genetics and genomics : MGG - 1 Jan 2002

Ruiz-Albert J, Cerdá-Olmedo E, Corrochano L M

Abstract excerpt

Terpenoids or isoprenoids constitute a vast family of organic compounds that includes sterols and carotenoids. The terpenoids in many organisms share early steps in their biosynthesis, including the synthesis of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) and its conversion to mevalonate. We have cloned and characterised the genes hmgS for HMG-CoA synthase and hmgR for HMG-CoA reductase from the Zygomycete...
