3-Hydroxy-3-methyl-1-thionoglutaryl-coenzyme A, a dithioester analog of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA, has been enzymatically synthesized using the HMG-CoA synthase catalyzed condensation of acetyl-CoA with 3-oxo-1-thionobutyryl-CoA. HMGdithio-CoA is a potent inhibitor of Pseudomonas mevalonii HMG-CoA reductase. Inhibition was mainly competitive with respect to HMG-CoA with a Kis of 0.086 +/- .01 microM and noncompetitive with respect to NADH with a Kis of 3.7 +/- 1.5 microM and a Kii of 0.65 +/- .05 microM in the presence of 110 microM (R.S)-HMG-CoA.
