The Effects of Aqueous Atorvastatin on Steroidogenesis of <i>Xenopus laevis</i> at Environmentally Relevant Concentrations
… (<em>Hmgcr</em>) thus inhibiting production of mevalonic acid in the mevalonate pathway. Atorvastatin (Lipitor) is one of the most widely prescribed statin drugs and contamination of wastewater effluent is a growing environmental concern because of the potential to interfere with steroidogenesis …

Investigation of the molecular basis of PAMP-induced resistance
… bacteria. In addition, interference with the mevalonic acid biosynthetic pathway impairs antibacterial defenses, suggesting a role in immunity. Additional tests are underway to better assess the contribution of these PIR genes to PTI. Therefore, through the pir screen, I have identified …

Biosynthesis of Steroidal Glycoakaloids in Solanum chacoense Bitter
… it catalyzes an irreversible step from the mevalonic acid pathway. However, the regulatory mechanisms of squalene synthase are not yet known. A study was conducted to elucidate the distribution pattern of SGAs and to clone the squalene synthase gene in order to determine a relationship …
