- Molecular Weight:382.62
IUPAC Name: (5S,10S,13R,14R,17R)-10,13-dimethyl-17-((R)-6-methylhept-5-en-2-yl)-1,2,4,5,6,7,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17-tetradecahydro-3H-cyclopenta[a]phenanthren-3-one
InChIKey: AUNLIRXIJAVBNM-ZSBATXSLSA-N
SMILES: C[C@]12CCC3=C([C@@]1(CC[C@@]2([C@](C)(CC/C=C(C)\C)[H])[H])[H])CC[C@]4([H])[C@]3(C)CCC(C4)=O
Biological Activity: Zymosterone is converted into zymosterol, an intermediate in cholesterol synthesis, through the action of the enzyme hydroxysteroid (17β) dehydrogenase 7 (HSD17B7), and this transformation, catalyzed by 3-keto sterol reductase (ERG27), plays a crucial role in the biosynthesis of ergosterol in yeast.
