Plant Growth Retardants as Inhibitors of Sterol Biosynthesis in Tobacco Seedlings [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 1974 Three plant-growth retardants 2'-isopropy1-4'-(trimethylammonium chloride)-5-methylphenylpiperidine carboxylate (Amo 1618), beta-chloroethyltrimethylammonium chloride, and tributyl-2, 4-dichlorobenzylphosphonium chloride were tested for their effects on sterol production in, and growth of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) seedlings.

Arab Journal of Basic and Applied Sciences, 2022 The black fungus is a SARS-CoV-2-associated fungal co-infection. Mechanisms by which antifungal drugs act against Mucormycosis are by inhibition of enzymes implicated in ergosterol biosynthesis or cell wall formation or the drug interaction directly with

Isolation and chemical characterization of Δ5,7,24-cholestatrien-3β-ol from pig tissues
Journal of Lipid Research, 1969 Although indirect evidence has implicated Δ5,7,24-cholestatrien-3β-ol a possible intermediate in cholesterol biosynthesis, this sterol has not previously been isolated from tissues. Administration of two inhibitors of cholesterol biosynthesis to pigs led
