The dinoflagellate Glenodiniumhallii was investigated for its sterol composition. Five of the six sterols were isolated and identified as cholest-5-en-3β-ol, (24ξ)-24-methylcholest-5-en-3β-ol, stigmasta-5,22-dien-3β-ol, (22E,24R)-4α,23,24-trimethyl-5α-cholest-22-en-3β-ol, and 4α,23ξ,24ξ-trimethyl-5α-cholestan-3β-ol.  相似文献

Almost an of the solvent-extractable sterols and their nuclearsaturated analogues in a sample of Walvis Bay surface sediment have been analysed by capillary GLC and GC-MS, and by coinjection with a variety of standards. The presence in sediments of 22-trans-24-nor-5α-cholest-22-en-3β-ol, 24-methylene-5α-cholestan-3β-ol, and components tentatively assigned as 23,24-dimethylcholesta-5,22-dien-3β-ol and 23,24-dimethyl-5α-cholest-22-en-3β-ol has been demonstrated for the first time. A novel sterol and its saturated analogue have also been found. The sterol distribution cannot be related solely to the reported major input of phytoplankton; the presence of 22,23-methylene-23,24-dimethylcholest-5-en-3β-ol and its saturated analogue indicates a coelenterate contribution. The analysis emphasises the necessity of glass capillary columns and coinjection of standards.  相似文献

A method of isolating pure fractions of 4α-methyl-5α-ergosta-8, 24 (28)-dien-3β-ol for sterol intermediate studies is described. Starvation cultures of Neurospora crassa readily incorporate exogenous mevalonic acid into the sterol ester fraction. Isolation involves a simple solvent extraction and two chromatograms. Only the ester fraction yielded the required purity. Radioactive 4α-methyl-5α-ergosta-8, 24 (28)-dien-3β-ol is readily produced from DL-[2-14C] mevalonic acid.  相似文献

More than thirty monohydroxy sterols were detected in the marine sponge Petrosia ficiformis, ranging from the ubiquitous 24-norcholesta-5, 22-dien-3β-o1 to the C30 sterol, 24-propylidenecholesterol. A new minor sterol was isolated and shown by spectral analysis and comparison with a synthetic sample to be (24R)-24,26-dimethy1cho1esta-5,26-dien-3β-o1 [26(29)-dehydroap1ysterol] (12).  相似文献

The 1500 X g supernatant of the silkworm Bombyx mori gut homogenate catalyzed the conversion of 24, 28-epoxystigmast-5-en-3β-ol(III) to cholesta-5, 24-dien-3β-ol(IV) which is a key step of stigmast-5-en-3β-ol(I) dealkylation in the insects. A structural analog 24, 28-imino-stigmast-5-en-3β-ol(VI) was a potent inhibitor of this conversion.  相似文献

The complex sterol mixture isolated from A, nigra was found to contain a low level of Δ4-3-keto steroids, 5β-stanols and 4α-methyl sterols in addition to regular (4-demethyl) sterols. The following new marine sterols were isolated and identified using MS and 360 MHz NMR: 5β-cholest-22E-en-3β-ol, 24S-methyl-5β-cholest-22E-en-3β-ol, 24-methylene-5β-cholestan-3β-ol, both epimers at C-24 of 4α-methyl-24-ethyl-5α-cholest-22E-en-3β-ol, 4α, 22ξ, 23ξ-(or 24ξ-)trimethyl-5α-cholest-8(14)-en-3β-ol and (22S, 23S, 24S)-4α-24-dimethyl-22, 23-methylene-5α-cholestan-3β-ol. The latter sterol and 23-demethylgorqosterol have opposite configurations at C-22, C-23, and C-24; the Δ8(14) sterol has an unprecedented side chain.  相似文献

Two rare C30-sterols, (24E)-24-n-propylidenecholest-5-en-3β-ol and 24-n-propylcholest-5-en-3β-ol, and (24S)-24-ethylcholesta-5,22-dien- 3β-ol (stigmasterol) are the major sterols of Nematochrysopsis roscoffensis, a Chrysophyte of the Sarcinochrysidales order. This unique sterol composition is different from the sterol contents of other Chrysophytes and justifies the peculiar position of the Sarcinochrysidales, which are by some characteristics morphologically and biologically related to the Phaeophyceae. The presence of (24S)-24-methylcholesta-5,22-dien-3β-ol (24-epibrassicasterol) as a major sterol in Chrysotila lamellosa is in accordance with the few previous results obtained from other Prymnesiophyceae, although the presence of the other major sterol, (24R)-24-ethylcholesta-5,22-dien-3β-ol (poriferasterol) has never been reported in these algae.  相似文献

Sterols, a group of stable lipid compounds, are often used as biomarkers in marine biogeochemical studies to indicate sources of organic matter. In this study, sterols in 13 species of major bloom-forming algae in China, which belong to Dinophyceae, Bacillariophyceae, Ulvophyceae, and Pelagophyceae, were analyzed with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC–MS) to test their feasibility in representing different types of harmful algal blooms (HABs). It was found that (24Z)-stigmasta-5,24-dien-3β-ol (28-isofucosterol) was a major sterol component in green-tide forming macroalga Ulva prolifera. In bloom-forming dinoflagellates Alexandrium spp., Prorocentrum micans and Scrippsiella trochoidea, (22E)-4α,23-dimethyl-5α-ergost-22-en-3β-ol (dinosterol) was detected in addition to cholest-5-en-3β-ol (cholesterol), (22E)-ergosta-5,22-dien-3β-ol, (22E)-stigmasta-5,22-dien-3β-ol and other minor sterol components. In brown-tide forming pelagophyte Aureococcus anophagefferens, (24E)-24-propylcholesta-5,24-dien-3β-ol ((24E)-24-propylidenecholesterol) and (24Z)-24-propylcholesta-5,24-dien-3β-ol ((24Z)-24-propylidenecholesterol) were detected together with cholesterol, (22E)-stigmasta-5,22-dien-3β-ol, stigmast-5-en-3β-ol and campest-5-en-3β-ol. Among the selected bloom-forming diatoms, Chaetoceros sp. and Pseudo-nitzschia spp. only produced cholesterol, while Cylindrotheca closterium produced solely (22E)-ergosta-5,22-dien-3β-ol. Sterol content in four bloom-forming algal species correlates well with their biomass or abundance. It's proposed that 28-isofucosterol could serve as a promising biomarker for green algae in green-tide studies. Dinosterol and (24Z)-24-propylidenecholesterol can be used as potential biomarkers to represent bloom-forming dinoflagellates and pelagophytes, while (22E)-ergosta-5,22-dien-3β-ol is not a good indicator for diatoms.  相似文献

The heterotrophic dinoflagellate Crypthecodinium cohnii contained the 4α-methyl sterols, dinosterol, dehydrodinosterol (4α,23,24-trimethylcholesta-5,22-dien-3β-ol) and the tentatively identified 4α,24-dimethyl-cholestan-3β-ol and 4α,24-dimethylcholest-5-en-3β-ol. The major 4-demethyl sterol was cholesta-5,7-dien-3β-ol which was accompanied by a smaller amount of cholesterol and traces of several other C27,C28 and C29 sterols. In addition, a 3-oxo-steroid fraction was isolated and the major component identified as dinosterone (4α,23,24-trimethylcholest-22-en-3-one). The possible biosynthetic relationships of these compounds are discussed.  相似文献

The fatty acid, sterol and chlorophyll pigment compositions of the marine dinoflagellates Gymnodinium wilczeki and Prorocentrum cordatum are reported. The fatty acids of both algae show a typical dinoflagellate distribution pattern with a predominance of C18, C20 and C22 unsaturated components. The acid 18:5ω3 is present at high concentration in these two dinoflagellates. G. wilczeki contains a high proportion (93.4%) of 4-methyl-5α-stanols including 4,23,24-trimethyl-5α-cholest-22E-en-3β-ol (dinosterol), dinostanol and 4,23,24-trimethyl-5α-cholest-7-en-3β-ol reported for the first time in dinoflagellates. The role of this sterol in the biosynthesis of 5α-stanols in dinoflagellates is discussed. P. cordatum contains high concentrations of a number of δ 24(28)-sterols with dinosterol, 24-methylcholesta-5,24(28)-dien-3β-ol, 23,24-dimethylcholesta-5,22E-dien-3β-ol, 4,24-dimethyl-5α-cholest-24(28)-en-3β-ol and a sterol identified as either 4,23,24-trimethyl- or 4-methyl-24-ethyl-5α-cholest-24(28)-en-3β-ol present as the five major components. The role of marine dinoflagellates in the input of both 4-methyl- and 4-desmethyl-5α-stanols to marine sediments is discussed.  相似文献

Several cholesterol analogs structurally modified in nuclear substitutions were tested for sustaining the growth of the silkworm Bombyx mori. 5α-Cholest-7-en-3β-ol, 5,7-cholestadien-3β-ol and cholesteryl acetate can replace cholesterol as sterol source for B. mori. Considerably good growth was also obained with 5α-cholest-14-en-3β-ol and 5α-cholesta-6,8(14)-dien-3β-ol. Other sterols tested were either partially effective or ineffective as nutrients.  相似文献

In the seeds of Cucurbita pepo three closely related 24-ethyl-Δ7-steryl glucosides were identified by hydrolytic studies and spectral analysis as spinasteryl-β-D-glucopyranoside, the new 3-O-(β-D-glucopyranosyl)-24β-ethyl-5α-cholesta-7,25(27)-dien-3β-ol and the corresponding Δ22E,25,(27)-trienol. Except for its occurrence in cucumber seeds the latter is so far unknown as a natural product.  相似文献

The sterols of Zea mays shoots were isolated and characterized by TLC, HPLC, GC/MS and 1H NMR techniques. In all, 22 4-demethyl sterols were identified and they included trace amounts of the Δ23-, Δ24- and Δ25-sterols, 24-methylcholesta-5,E-23-dien-3β-ol, 24-methylcholesta-5,Z-23-dien-3β-ol, 24-methylcholesta-5,25-dien-3β-ol, 24-ethylcholesta-5,25-dien-3β-ol and 24-ethylcholesta-5,24-dien-3β-ol. In the 4,4-dimethyl sterol fraction, cycloartenol and 24-methylenecycloartanol were the major sterol components but small amounts of the Δ23-compound, cyclosadol, and the Δ25-compound, cyclolaudenol, were recognized. These various Δ23- and Δ25-sterols may have some importance in alternative biosynthetic routes to the major sterols, particularly the 24β-methylcholest-5-en-3β-ol component of the C28-sterols. Radioactivity from both [2-14C]MVA and [methyl-14C]methionine was incorporated by Z. mays shoots into the sterol mixture. Although 24-methylene and 24-ethylidene sterols were relatively highly labelled, the various Δ23- and Δ25-sterols contained much lower levels of radioactivity, which is possibly indicative of their participation in alternative sterol biosynthetic routes. (24R)-24-Ethylcholest-5-en-3β-ol (sitosterol) had a significantly higher specific activity than the 24-methylcholest-5-en-3β-ol indicating that the former is synthesized at a faster rate.  相似文献

The structure of patinosterol, a minor sterol from the scallop, Patinopecten yessoensis, was established as 22-trans-27-nor- (24S)-24-methyl-5α-cholest-22-en-3β-ol by synthesis through Wittig reaction.  相似文献

The novel cyclopropyl sterol, 24ξ, 25ξ-24, 26-cyclocholest-5-en-3β-ol (24, 26-cyclocholesterol), has been isolated from the sponge Spheciospongia sp. (Spirastrella vagabunda Ridley) and its structure established by spectral analysis and by correlation with papakusterol.  相似文献

(22S)-[22-3H1]-Cholesterol was incubated with an adrenocortical preparation and the isolated (22R)-[22-3H1]-22-hydroxycholesterol had a small loss of radioactivity, proving that direct replacement of the hydrogen from the now hydroxylated position occurred.In addition [1-3H1]-4-methylpentanol was isolated, which also had incurred a relatively small loss of its specific activity, thereby excluding (20R)-3β,20-dihydroxycholest-5-en-22-one as an important metabolite in the degradation of cholesterol to pregnenolone by adrenal tissue.  相似文献

Fourteen 4α-methyl sterols have been isolated from the gorgonians Briareum asbestinum, Gorgonia mariae, Muriceopsis flavida and Pseudoplexaura wagenaari, including the following five new sterols: 4α-methyl-24-methylene-5α-cholestan-3β-ol, (24R)-4α, 24-dimethyl-5α-cholesta-7,22-dien-3,β-ol, 4α,24S(or 23ξ)-dimethyl-5α-cholest-7-en-3β-ol, (22E, 24R)-4α,23,24-trimethyl-5α-cholesta-7,22-dien-3β-ol and (24R)-4α,24-dimethyl-5α-cholesta-8(14),22-dien-3β-ol. There is strong evidence that these 4α-methyl sterols are synthesized by the algal (dinoflagellate) symbionts (zooxanthellae) of the gorgonians. It is suggested that analysis of 4Δ-methyl sterol mixtures isolated from a zooxanthellae-bearing invertebrate, collected in several different geographic locations, might give information on the specificity of the symbiotic association between a given animal species and a particular strain of zooxanthellae.  相似文献

The sterol compositions of 14 species of marine diatoms were determined by gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. A variety of sterol profiles were found. The sterols 24-methylcholesta-5,22E-dien-3β-ol, cholest-5-en-3β-ol, and 24-methylcholesta-5,24(28)-dien-3β-ol, previously described as the most common sterols found in diatoms, were major sterols in only a few of the species. In light of this and other recent data, it is clear that these three sterols are not typical constituents of many diatom species. Most of the centric species examined had 24-methylcholesta-5,24(28)-dien-3β-ol and 24-methylcholest-5-en-3β-ol as two of their major sterols. The exception was Rhizosolenia setigera, which possessed cholesta-5,24-dien-3β-ol as its single major sterol. In contrast to the centric species, the pennate diatoms examined did not have any particular sterols common to most species. Minor levels ofΔ7-sterols, rarely found in large amounts in diatoms, were found in four species. C29sterols were found in many species; seven contained 24-ethylcholest-5-en-3β-ol and three contained 24-ethylcholesta-5,22E-dien-3β-ol, reinforcing previous suggestions that C29 sterols are not restricted to higher plants and macroalgae. 24-Ethylcholesta-5,22E-dien-3β-ol may prove to be useful for taxonomy of the genus Amphora and the order Thalassiophysales. A major sterol of Fragilaria pinnata was the uncommon algal sterol 23,24-dimethylcholesta-5,22E-dien-3β-ol. Cholesta-5,24-dien-3β-ol was the only sterol found in the culture of Nitzschia closterium. This differed from previous reports of 24-methylcholesta-5,22E-dien-3β-ol as the single major sterol in N. closterium. Two C28 sterols possessing an unusual side chain were found in Thalassi-onema nitzschioides, a C28:2 sterol (16%) and a C28:1 sterol in lower abundance (2.5%), which may be 23-methylcholesta-5,22E-dien-3β-ol and 23-methyl-5α-cholest-22E-en-3β-ol, respectively. The species Cylindrotheca fusiformis, T. nitzschioides, and Skeletonema sp. may be useful as direct sources of cholesterol in mariculture feeds due to their moderate to high content of this sterol.  相似文献

Several new 4α-methyl sterols with unusual unsaturation in the Δ8(14)-or Δ14-positions, 4α,24S-dimethyl-5α-cholest-8 (14)-en-3β-ol, 4α-methyl-24ξ-ethyl-5α-cholest-8(14)-en-3β-ol, 4α-methyl-24(Z)-ethylidene-5α-cholest-8(14)- en-3β-ol, 4α,23 (or 22),24ξ-trimethyl-5α-cholesta-8(14),22-dien-3β-ol, 4α,24S(or 23ξ)-dimethyl-5α-cholest-14-en-3β-ol and 14-dehydrodinosterol, have been isolated from extracts of the cultured marine dinoflagellates Amphidinium carterae, A. corpulentum and Glenodinium sp. 4α-Methyl-24ξ-ethyl-5α-cholestan-3β-ol was isolated from the steryl ester fraction of Glenodinium sp. The structures of these new sterols are based upon extensive 360 MHz 1H NMR and MS analyses.  相似文献

A method is described for the chemical synthesis of stigmasta-5,24-dien-3β-ol-[26-14C] and (24S)-24-ethylcholesta-5,25-dien-3β-ol-[26-14C] (clerosterol). 28-Isofucosterol-[7-3H2] fed to developing barley seedlings (Hordeum vulgare) was incorporated into sitosterol and stigmasterol confirming the utilisation of a 24-ethylidene sterol intermediate in 24α-ethyl sterol production in this plant. Also, the use of mevalonic acid-[2-14C(4R)-4-3H1] verified the loss of the C-25 hydrogen of 28-isofucosterol during its conversion into sitosterol and stigmasterol in agreement with the previously postulated isomerisation of the 24-ethylidene sterol to a Δ24(25)-sterol prior to reduction. However, feeding stigmasta-5,24-dien-3β-ol [26-14C] to barley seedlings gave very low incorporation into sitosterol. Attempts to trap radioactivity from mevalonic-[2-14C(4R)-4-3H1] in stigmasta-5,24-dien-3β-ol when this unlabelled sterol was administered to barley seedlings gave only a very small incorporation although both 28-isofucosterol and sitosterol were labelled.  相似文献
