Rename article to mevalonate pathway

The mevalonate pathway is more commonly used and accepted than HMG-CoA reductase pathway. So, I think, the mevalonate kinase a better one as the article title.

In any case having abbreviations in the title is not proper either. One way or another, this article should be retitled. I don't know the topic well enough to know what's best, so maybe others can make suggestions. Edgar181 12:49, 22 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

You are right. I will do it. The pathway also ends with production of prenyl-diphosphate --Kupirijo 03:06, 5 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

structure of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl CoA

I believe you have to many carbons in 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl CoA, the carbon attached to the carbonyl at position 5 needs to be a OH/O- group.

I agree, and have left User:Jag123 a message requesting the fix. --David Iberri (talk) 14:56, 3 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Is anybody going to fix it? Do we have a repository of chemical structures in svg format? It would be nice if we had a database of ChemDraw structures. Does anybody know?--Kupirijo 15:59, 11 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
