Mevastatin is a cholesterol-lowering agent. It is a competitive inhibitor of HMG-Coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase and has a binding affinity 10,000 times more than the HMG-CoA substrate. It has also been shown to inhibit cdk2 activating phosphorylation. Ref: The Journal of Biological Chemistry. 2003; 278, 4840-4846.
