Abstract excerpt
Eukaryotes characteristically express a cytochrome P450-catalyzed sterol 14α-methyl demethylase as an essential step in the production of membrane sterols. Lanosterol 14α-demethylase of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is the best characterized representative of these enzymes among fungi and provides a model system for the molecular genetic analysis of the reaction. The gene for this P450 and the gene for the S....
