The effects of statins on the mevalonic acid pathway in recombinant yeast strains expressing human HMG-CoA reductase

BACKGROUND: The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae can be a useful model for studying cellular mechanisms related to sterol synthesis in humans due to the high similarity of the mevalonate pathway between these organisms. This metabolic pathway plays a key role in multiple cellular processes by synthesi...
