Lanosterol

Lanosterol is a tetracyclic triterpenoid that is lanosta-8,24-diene substituted by a beta-hydroxy group at the 3beta position. It is the compound from which all steroids are derived. It has a role as a mouse metabolite, a Saccharomyces cerevisiae metabolite, a plant metabolite, a bacterial metabolite and a human metabolite. It is a 14alpha-methyl steroid, a tetracyclic triterpenoid and a 3beta-sterol. It derives from a hydride of a lanostane. — ChEBI
