lanosterol उदाहरण वाक्य
उदाहरण वाक्य
- Here, the isoprene units are joined together to make squalene and then folded up and formed into a set of rings to make lanosterol.
- A number of early attempts to block the synthesis of cholesterol resulted in agents that inhibited late in the biosynthetic pathway between lanosterol and cholesterol.
- In particular, this protein catalyzes the removal of the C-14 ?-methyl group from lanosterol ( Lepesheva et al . ).
- Studies in which lanosterol synthase is partially inhibited have shown both a direct decrease in lanosterol formation and a decrease in HMG-CoA reductase activity.
- Studies in which lanosterol synthase is partially inhibited have shown both a direct decrease in lanosterol formation and a decrease in HMG-CoA reductase activity.
- Due to the enzyme s role in cholesterol biosynthesis, there is interest in lanosterol synthase inhibitors as potential cholesterol-reducing drugs, to complement existing statins.
- Disregarding some intermediate compounds ( e . g . 4-4-dimethylzymosterol ) lanosterol can be considered a precursor of zymosterol in the cholesterol synthesis pathway.
- Replacement of a hydrogen atom attached to carbon number 3 in the 5? isomer with a hydroxyl group results in lanosterol, the precursor of the steroids in animals.
- This demethylation step is regarded as the initial checkpoint in the transformation of lanosterol to other sterols that are widely used within the cell ( Lepesheva et al . ).
- It is the starting point for the synthesis of almost all plant steroids, making them chemically distinct from the steroids of fungi and animals which are instead produced from lanosterol.
