lanosterol

lanosterol is a lipid of Sterol Lipids (ST) class. Lanosterol is associated with abnormalities such as Infection, Atherosclerosis, Myocardial Infarction, Chagas Disease and Fatty Liver. The involved functions are known as Signal, Cytokinesis, physiological aspects, Stereochemistry and ergosterol biosynthetic process. Lanosterol often locates in Body tissue, Membrane, Plasma membrane, Tissue membrane and Cytoskeletal Filaments. The associated genes with lanosterol are Retinoic Acid Response Element, P4HTM gene, CYP51A1 gene, HM13 gene and SC4MOL gene. The related lipids are pneumocysterol, Sterols, lanosteryl acetate, ebericol and cycloartenol. The related experimental models are Knock-out.
