Talk:Mevalonate pathway
Appearance
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)
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.
