It is a mitochondrial enzyme that catalyzes the first reaction of ketogenesis, a metabolic pathway that provides lipid-derived energy for various organs during times of carbohydrate deprivation, such as fasting. Mutations in this gene are associated with HMG-CoA synthase deficiency. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2009]. * **<color #00a2e8>UniProt Summary</color>**: This enzyme condenses acetyl-CoA with acetoacetyl-CoA to form HMG-CoA, which is the substrate for HMG-CoA reductase. <button type='primary' size='sm' modal='Pfam_Domains'>Pfam Domains</button> <button type='primary' size='sm' modal='GO_terms'>GO Terms</button> <modal id='Pfam_Domains' size='lg' title='Pfam Domains'> |HMG CoA synt C| |HMG CoA synt N| </modal> <modal id='GO_terms' size='lg' title='GO Terms'> |farnesyl diphosphate biosynthetic process, mevalonate pathway| |isoprenoid biosynthetic process via mevalonate| |hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA synthase activity| |farnesyl diphosphate biosynthetic process| |farnesyl diphosphate metabolic process| |ketone body biosynthetic process| |cellular ketone body metabolic process| |ketone body metabolic process| |terpenoid biosynthetic process| |isoprenoid biosynthetic process| |acetyl-CoA metabolic process| |cholesterol biosynthetic process| |secondary alcohol biosynthetic process| |sterol biosynthetic process| |fatty acid derivative biosynthetic process| |acyl-CoA metabolic process| |thioester metabolic process| |alcohol biosynthetic process| |cholesterol metabolic process| |terpenoid metabolic process| |steroid biosynthetic process| |secondary alcohol metabolic process| |purine nucleoside bisphosphate metabolic process| |nucleoside bisphosphate metabolic process| |ribonucleoside bisphosphate metabolic process| |sterol metabolic process| |isoprenoid metabolic process| |fatty acid derivative metabolic process| |organic hydroxy compound biosynthetic process| |phospholipid biosynthetic process| |coenzyme metabolic process| |steroid metabolic process| |purine ribonucleotide metabolic process| |alcohol metabolic process| |ribonucleotide metabolic process| |purine nucleotide metabolic process| |ribose phosphate metabolic process| |sulfur compound metabolic process| |purine-containing compound metabolic process| |mitochondrial matrix| |phospholipid metabolic process| |regulation of lipid metabolic process| |generation of precursor metabolites and energy| |cofactor metabolic process| |nucleotide metabolic process| |nucleoside phosphate metabolic process| |organic hydroxy compound metabolic process| |drug metabolic process| |organophosphate biosynthetic process| |nucleobase-containing small molecule metabolic process| |lipid biosynthetic process| |small molecule biosynthetic process| |cellular amide metabolic process| |organophosphate metabolic process| |cellular lipid metabolic process| |carbohydrate derivative metabolic process| |lipid metabolic process| |mitochondrion| |organic cyclic compound biosynthetic process| |small molecule metabolic process| </modal> \\ === CRISPR Data === <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Compound_Hit'>Compound Hit</button> <button type='default' size='small' modal='Most_Correlated_Genes'>Most Correlated Genes in Chemogenomics</button> <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Essential_Avana'>Tissues where Essential in the Avana Dataset (DepMap 20Q1)</button> <modal id='Compound_Hit' size='lg' title='Compound Hit'> ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp114|A-196 10μM R03 exp114]]|-2.1| |[[:results:exp75|MK-1775 0.32μM R02 exp75]]|-1.92| |[[:results:exp516|Pyrazinamide 100μM R08 exp516]]|-1.85| |[[:results:exp68|Clomiphene 4.4μM R02 exp68]]|-1.82| |[[:results:exp4|Actinomycin-D 0.01μM R00 exp4]]|1.73| |[[:results:exp426|FBS-Wisent 0.1 R07 exp426]]|2.09| </modal> <modal id='Most_Correlated_Genes' size='lg' title='Most Correlated Genes in Chemogenomics'> No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics. </modal> <modal id='Essential_Avana' size='lg' title='Tissues where Essential in the Avana Dataset (DepMap 20Q1)'> Global Fraction of Cell Lines Where Essential: 0/739 ^Tissue^Fraction Of Cell Lines Where Essential^ |1290807.0|0/1| |909776.0|0/1| |bile duct|0/28| |blood|0/28| |bone|0/26| |breast|0/33| |central nervous system|0/56| |cervix|0/4| |colorectal|0/17| |esophagus|0/13| |fibroblast|0/1| |gastric|0/16| |kidney|0/21| |liver|0/20| |lung|0/75| |lymphocyte|0/16| |ovary|0/26| |pancreas|0/24| |peripheral nervous system|0/16| |plasma cell|0/15| |prostate|0/1| |skin|0/24| |soft tissue|0/9| |thyroid|0/2| |upper aerodigestive|0/22| |urinary tract|0/29| |uterus|0/5| </modal> == Essentiality in NALM6 == * **<color #00a2e8>Essentiality Rank</color>**: 14071 * **<color #00a2e8>Expression level (log2 read counts)</color>**: -6.6 <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Dist_expr'>Expression Distribution</button> <modal id='Dist_expr' size='lg' title='HMGCS2 Expression in NALM6 Cells: -6.6'> {{:chemogenomics:nalm6 dist.png?nolink |}} </modal> Last modified: 2026/01/07 22:36by 127.0.0.1
