Lovastatin acid

Name: Lovastatin acid
Brand: MedChemExpress
SKU: HY-122439
Availability: PreOrder

(Synonyms: Mevinolinic acid; MSD803)

Lovastatin acid (Mevinolinic acid; MSD803), an active metabolite of Lovastatin (HY-N0504), is a potent competitive HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor with a K_i of 0.6 nM. Lovastatin acid acts as a competitive inhibitor with respect to substrate HMG-CoA, interfering cholesterol synthesis. Lovastatin acid can be used for the research of hypercholesterolemia.

For research use only. We do not sell to patients.

Help & FAQs

How should lyophilized recombinant proteins be reconstituted and stored?

1. Before opening the cap, centrifuge the vial at 13000 rpm for 20-30 seconds. This step will ensure that any lyophilized powder that may have adhered to the cap or walls is collected at the bottom of the vial, minimizing the risk of product loss.
