genes LcHMG1 and LcHMG2 exhibit distinct expression patterns during litchi fruit development. LcHMG1 expression is highest in the early stage of fruit development, correlated with the high level of cell division. Absolute levels of LcHMG1 expression vary among fruits of different pheno- or genotypes, with expression in large-fruited types reaching higher levels for longer duration compared to that in small-fruited types. LcHMG2 is most highly expressed in the late stage of fruit development, in association with biosynthesis of isoprenoid compounds required for later cell enlargement
NCTC 2544 cells. HMG-CoA reductase and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha are involved in clofibrate-induced apoptosis in human keratinocytes
HMG-CoA reductase activity is higher in both female and male Nagase analbumimetic rats than in Sprague-Dwwley rats. Ovariectomy results in no significant changes in total hepatic HMG-CoA reductase in female Sprague-Dawley rats
the enzyme is fully activated both in acute and in chronic thioacetamide-treated animals, while no modifications are detected in its KM and in its short-term regulatory enzymes
HMG-CoA reductase activity is higher in both female and male Nagase analbumimetic rats than in Sprague-Dwwley rats. Ovariectomy results in no significant changes in total hepatic HMG-CoA reductase in female Sprague-Dawley rats
growth at high and low salinity, quantitative expression analysis, overview, the expression of HMGR is regulated in response to non-optimal salinity in the halophilic archaeon
the activity of microsomal isoyzme Hmg2 is highest under hypo-saline and extremely hyper-saline conditions, and down-regulated under optimal growth conditions, while the activity of the truncated mitochondrial Hmg1 is constant under different growth conditions
analysis of LcHMG1 and LcHMG2 expressions in various litchi tissues, developmental stages and genotypes, overview. Expression of LcHMG1 and LcHMG2 is universally detected in all the tissues analyzed, including unfertilized female flowers, fruit tissues, leaves, shoots, and roots but their expression level appears to vary from tissue to tissue, with the highest expression found in the young pericarp (39 DAA) and the lowest in the aged seed. High level of expression in young tissues compared to aged tissues for a given organ except root
