Summary Summary of gene provided in NCBI Entrez Gene.
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the HMG-CoA synthase family. 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

Protein name Hydroxymethylglutaryl-CoA synthase, mitochondrial (HMG-CoA synthase) (EC 2.3.3.10) (3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A synthase)
Protein function Catalyzes the first irreversible step in ketogenesis, condensing acetyl-CoA to acetoacetyl-CoA to form HMG-CoA, which is converted by HMG-CoA reductase (HMGCR) into mevalonate. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11228257, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23751782, ECO:00002
