Episterol
Episterol is an Ergosterol (HY-N0181) biosynthetic intermediate. Episterol replaces Ergosterol as the major sterol in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Δerg3 mutants, confers resistance to combined lethal and vacuole-disruptive actions of Amphotericin B (HY-B0221) and MC12 (HY-175024).

Biological Activity
Episterol accumulation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Δerg3 mutant cells eliminates the synergistic antifungal activity between Amphotericin B (HY-B0221) and MC12 (HY-175024), resulting in an indifferent drug interaction with an FIC index of 2.00[1].
