Sesterterpenes and a New Sterol from the Marine Sponge Phyllospongia foliascens

Molecules, 2010
A new scalarane sesterterpene, phyllofolactone M (1), and a new sterol, (24E)-5α,6α-epoxystigmasta-7,24(28)-dien-3β-ol (3), together with a known sesterterpene, phyllofolactone B (2), were isolated from the South China Sea sponge Phyllospongia foliascens.

Impact of TR₃₄/L98H, TR₄₆/Y121F/T289A and TR₅₃ Alterations in Azole-Resistant Aspergillus fumigatus on Sterol Composition and Modifications after In Vitro Exposure to Itraconazole and Voriconazole

Microorganisms, 2022
Background: Sterols are the main components of fungal membranes. Inhibiting their biosynthesis is the mode of action of azole antifungal drugs that are widely used to treat fungal disease including aspergillosis.

Genetic control of sterol esterification in developing wheat endosperm [PDF]

, 1975
1. 1. The action of gene Pln, previously characterized by the sterol ester patterns of mature whole wheat kernels, has been found to be restricted to the endosperm and not to affect the embryo, the pericarp or the seed coat. 2. 2.

Neutral glycolipids of the filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa:altered expression in plant defensin-resistant mutants

Journal of Lipid Research, 2005
To defend themselves against fungal pathogens, plants produce numerous antifungal proteins and peptides, including defensins, some of which have been proposed to interact with fungal cell surface glycosphingolipid components.

Altered sterol metabolism in budding yeast affects mitochondrial iron–sulfur (Fe-S) cluster synthesis [PDF]

, 2018
Ergosterol synthesis is essential for cellular growth and viability of the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and intracellular sterol distribution and homeostasis are therefore highly regulated in this species. Erg25 is an iron-containing C4-methyl

Niemann-Pick type C proteins promote microautophagy by expanding raft-like membrane domains in the yeast vacuole

eLife, 2017
Niemann-Pick type C is a storage disease caused by dysfunction of NPC proteins, which transport cholesterol from the lumen of lysosomes to the limiting membrane of that compartment.

Kinetic modelling of sterol transport between plasma membrane and endo-lysosomes based on quantitative fluorescence and X-ray imaging data

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Niemann Pick type C1 and C2 (NPC1 and NPC2) are two sterol-binding proteins which, together, orchestrate cholesterol transport through late endosomes and lysosomes (LE/LYSs).

Chromosomal location of a gene that controls sterol esterification in Triticum aestivum L. [PDF]

, 1974
A previously described D genome locus (Pln) that controls sterol esterification in the wheat kernel has been assigned to the short arm of chromosome 7 D by comparison of the steryl ester phenotype of euploid kernels of Triticum aestivum variety Chinese ...

Endosperm sterol phenotype and germination in wheat [PDF]

, 1976
Free and conjugated sterols of endosperm, coats, scutellum, coleoptile and roots have been analysed at different germination stages in two wheat cultivars with different endosperm sterol phenotypes.

Multi-Omic Profiling of Melophlus Sponges Reveals Diverse Metabolomic and Microbiome Architectures that Are Non-overlapping with Ecological Neighbors. [PDF]

, 2020
Marine sponge holobionts, defined as filter-feeding sponge hosts together with their associated microbiomes, are prolific sources of natural products. The inventory of natural products that have been isolated from marine sponges is extensive. Here, using
