      In liver mitochondria : as a substrate in ketone bodies metabolism. HMG-CoA undergoes oxidation reaction in liver mitochondria to form acetone and . 3-hydroxybutyrate. The enzymes used are HMG-CoA synthase and HMG-CoA lyase. In cytosol : as a substrate in cholesterol metabolism. HMG-CoA is found in cholesterol synthesis.
