abstract: The activity of 3-hydrosy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase (HMG-CoA reductase) and the rate of mevalonic acid (MVA) synthesis from [I-14C]acetyl-CoA and [2-14C]malonyl-CoA in the soluble (X140000 g) and microsomal fractions of rat liver and in a reconstituted system containing the soluble and microsomal fractions were studied. The changes in the activity of HMG-CoA reductase and the rate of MVA biosynthesis in the fractions at different times of the day were analyzed. The daily rhythms of the rate of acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA incorporation into squalene, sterols and fatty acids in the postmitochondrial fraction and the daily changes in the acetyl-CoA carboxylase activity of the soluble fraction of rat liver were compared. The incorporation of labelled acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA into MVA showed that the latter can be synthesized from these two substrates both in the soluble and microsomal fractions. Malonyl-CoA is a preferable substrate for MVA synthesis in the soluble fraction. MVA synthesis from acetyl-CoA proceeds fastr in the intact and solubilized microsomes than in the soluble fraction. The activity of HMG-CoA reductase was found in the soluble and microsomal fractions in practically equal amounts. The enzyme activity was increased in the microsomal fraction after its solubilization. The rate of MVA biosynthesis from acetyl-CoA and the activity of HMG-CoA reductase in the soluble fraction are practically unaffected by day-to-night changes. The activity of HMG-CoA reductase and MVA biosynthesis from acetyl-CoA in the intact and solubilized microsomal fractions reached their maximal values in the middle of the dark period. The rate of MVA biosynthesis from malonyl-CoA was decreased in the middle of the dark period in all fractions studied and reached its maximum in the middle of the light period. The daily rhythms of the acetyl-CoA carboxylase activity in the soluble fraction and the rate of MVA biosynthesis from malonyl-CoA in all fractions show a coincidence. a comparison of incorporation by the postmitochondrial fractions of acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA into the total non-saponified lipid fraction and its components, e. g. squalene, lanosterol and cholesterol, as well as into sterols precipitated by digitonin, showed that malonyl-CoA incorporation into the total non-saponified lipid fraction was more intensive than that of acetyl-CoA. However, acetyl-CoA was far more efficiently incorporated into sterols precipitated by digitonin or isolated by TLC than malonyl-CoA. The rate of acetyl-CoA incorporation into the total non-saponified lipid fraction and into squalene, lanosterol and cholesterol was maximal in the middle of the dark period and minimal in the middle of the light period. On the contrary, the rate of malonyl-CoA incorporation into these products was minimal in the middle of the dark period and maximal in the middle of the light period. The rate of fatty acid biosynthesis from acetyl-CoA was increased in the middle of the light and dark periods...
