Which of the following enzyme is involved in process of both cholesterol and ketone bodies synthesis?
This enzyme is involved in both cholesterol synthesis as well as in ketone body synthesis.HMG CoA reductase is the rate-limiting enzyme of the cholesterol synthesis.HMG CoA lyase is the enzyme involved in ketone body synthesis.Thiolases are also known as acetyl-Coenzyme A acetyltransferases (ACAT), which are enzymes which conve two units of acetyl-CoA to acetoacetyl CoA in the mevalonate pathway. Thiolases are ubiquitous enzymes that have key roles in many vital biochemical pathways, including the beta-oxidation pathway of fatty acid degradation and various biosynthetic pathways.
