HMG-CoA lyase (HMGCL)
Clinical / pharmacological. HMG-CoA lyase deficiency: hypoketotic hypoglycaemia with metabolic acidosis
What it does, reaction by reaction
Ketogenesis Lipid Metabolism · Liver mitochondrial matrix
HMG-CoA → acetoacetate + acetyl-CoA
Converts HMG-CoA into Acetoacetate Acetyl-CoA
› Notes
HMG-CoA lyase cleaves HMG-CoA to the first ketone body, acetoacetate, and acetyl-CoA. No nucleotide cofactor is required.
Showing all 1 reactions.
