HMG-CoA reductase. HMG-CoA reductase (3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-coenzyme A reductase, officially abbreviated HMGCR) is the rate-controlling enzyme (NADH-dependent, EC 1.1.1.88; NADPH-dependent, EC 1.1.1.34) of the mevalonate pathway, the metabolic pathway that produces cholesterol and other isoprenoids.
What is the difference between sexual and asexual reproduction. Asexual is the creation of offspring from a single person and does not involve the joining of gametes, while sexual does and results in the creation of a being that is unique.
Asexual Reproduction : Notes/W.S.-50 Asexual reproduction is reproduction which requires only one parent. Simpler forms of life such as bacteria, amoebas, and yeast cells reproduce asexually. In all types of asexual reproduction, the offspring are exactly like the parent because the offspring have the same DNA as the parent. Two methods of asexual reproduction are fission and budding.
