Ecdysone

Ecdysone is a lipid of Sterol Lipids (ST) class. Ecdysone is associated with abnormalities such as Lafora Disease, Congenital Abnormality, Infection, protrusion and Morphologically altered structure. The involved functions are known as Cardiac Arrest, Transcription, Genetic, receptor function, Stimulus and Signal Transduction. Ecdysone often locates in Body tissue, Chromosomes, Polytene Chromosome, Epidermis and Muscle. The associated genes with Ecdysone are FATE1 gene, LGALS4 gene, Transgenes, LacZ Genes and C10orf27 gene. The related lipids are Steroids, FuGene, muristerone, N,N-dimethyl-N-hexadecyl-1-octadecylammonium chloride and 7-dehydrocholesterol. The related experimental models are Tissue Model.
