摘要
Hydroxymethylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase degradation occurs in the endoplasmic reticulum, and is regulated by the mevalonate pathway. In order to discover the molecules that mediate the degradation process and its control, we conducted a genetic analysis of the degradation of the yeast Hmg2p isozyme of hydroxymethylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase. Hmg2p degradation occurs by the action of HRD genes that direct Hmg2p to the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. Regulation of HRD-dependent Hmg2p degradation appears to occur by the action of a separate set of CRD genes. (C) 1998 Rapid Science Ltd.
