| Inhibition of Ergosterol Biosynthesis by Etaconazole in Ustilago maydis  | | | Abstract
| The triazole fungicide etaconazole (C G A 6 4 251) interferes with the ergosterol biosynthesis in Ustilago m aydis by inhibiting the C-14 dem ethylation o f the sterol nucleus. During the late log growth phase o f U. m aydis a novel endogenous sterol m etabolite (14x-m ethyl-ergosta-8,24(28)-dien-3/?,6a-diol) was discovered and analyzed, which accumulates under the influence o f the fungicide. The structure o f this m etabolite points to a hydroxylation-dehydration m echanism for the introduction o f the double bond at C-5 during the ergosterol biosynthesis. In troduction | | |
