Mevalonolactone inhibits the rate of synthesis and enhances the rate of degradation of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase in rat hepatocytes
Abstract
3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl(HMG)-coenzyme A reductase purified from rat liver in the absence of protease inhibitors is composed of two distinct polypeptides of Mr = 51,000 and 52,500. Antibody raised to enzyme purified from rats fed a diet supplemented with cholestyramine and mevinolin inactivated HMG-CoA reductase. The antibody specifically precipitated a polypeptide of Mr = 94,000 from rat liver cells that had been previously incubated with [35S]methionine. The immunoprecipitation of the 35S-labeled polypeptide of Mr = 94,000 was prevented by addition of unlabeled pure HMG-CoA reductase (Mr = 51,000 and 52,500). Incubation of rat liver cells with mevalonolactone resulted in a decreased activity of HMG-CoA reductase and in a 40% decrease in the rate of incorporation of [35S]methionine into the immunoprecipitable reductase polypeptide of Mr = 94,000. In pulse-chase experiments, mevalonolactone enhanced the rate of degradation of the Mr = 94,000 polypeptide 3-fold. We propose that endogenous microsomal HMG-CoA reductase has a subunit of Mr = 94,000 and that the synthesis and degradation of this polypeptide are regulated by either mevalonolactone or, more likely, a product of mevalonolactone metabolism.
