E. The statin class of drugs—Lipitor (atorvastatin), Mevacor (lovas-tatin), and Zocor (simvastatin)—is used to treat hypercholesterolemia. This class of drugs lowers cholesterol levels by inhibiting the biosynthesis of cholesterol. Specifically, these drugs inhibit the enzyme P-hydroxy-P-methylglutaryl-CoA (HMG-CoA) reductase, which catalyzes the reaction that converts HMG-CoA to mevalonate. This is the rate-limiting step of cholesterol biosynthesis. [Pg.280]
