5.4.99.8 | malfunction | in vivo application of inhibitor RO 48-8071 TBY-2 cells in short-term treatments (24 h) results in accumulation of oxidosqualene with no changes in the final sterol products. Long-term treatments (6 days) induces downregulation in gene expression not only of CAS but also of the SMT2 gene coding sterol methyltransferase 2 (EC 2.1.1.41) explaining some of the increase in 24-methyl sterols at the expense of the 24-ethyl sterols stigmasterol and sitosterol | Nicotiana tabacum |
5.4.99.8 | metabolism | building blocks for plant sterol biosynthesis, involving enzyme CAS, are provided by the mevalonate (MVA) pathway, overview | Nicotiana tabacum |
