Enzymic formation of esters of methyl sterol precursors of cholesterol

For investigation of the reactions of cholesterol biosynthesis, a number of workers use the 10,000 g supernatant fraction (or similar preparations) obtained from cell-free homogenates of rat liver. We have found that esters of methyl sterol biosynthetic intermediates are formed by this crude source...
