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.
While sexual reproduction provides variety in the offspring and natural selection, asexual reproduction will produce clones with all the genetic faults that the parent has in â¦ the offspring (this is not the case if the offspring are mutated). There are some drawbacks to sexual reproduction though.here are 3 types of asexual reproduction; budding, regeneration, and mitosis. budding is when the organism grows on the other organism and when it is fully developed it falls off. Ex: Hydra. Regeneration is an organisms ability to re-grow body parts.
