Protein Name: Hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA lyase, mitochondrial
|
UniprotKB/SwissProt ID: HMGCL_MOUSE (P38060)
Gene Name: Hmgcl
Organism: Mus musculus (Mouse).
Function: Key enzyme in ketogenesis (ketone body formation). Terminal step in leucine catabolism. Ketone bodies (beta- hydroxybutyrate, acetoacetate and acetone) are essential as an alternative source of energy to glucose, as lipid precursors and as regulators of metabolism (By similarity).
