Steroid metabolism in cnidarians: insights from Nematostella vectensis.

Molecular and cellular endocrinology - 25 Mar 2009

Abstract excerpt

Cnidarians occupy a key evolutionary position as a sister group to bilaterian animals. While cnidarians contain a diverse complement of steroids, sterols, and other lipid metabolites, relatively little is known of the endogenous steroid metabolism or function in cnidarian tissues. Incubations of cnidarian tissues with steroid substrates have indicated the presence of steroid metabolizing enzymes, particularly...
