Fungal cleavage of the sterol side chain

Abstract

A group of alcohols with the structure of the sterol side chain have been isolated from Nodulisporium hinnuleum and shown to have a specific activity when biosynthesized from [2-14C]mevalonic acid, consistent with a common origin with their co-metabolite, the 17-keto-steroid demethoxyviridin.
