Avermectin is a lipid of Polyketides (PK) class. Avermectin is associated with abnormalities such as Parasitic infection, Parasitic Diseases, Scabies, Tropical Disease and Onchocerciasis. The involved functions are known as Anabolism, Binding (Molecular Function), physiological aspects, Saturated and Cell Growth. Avermectin often locates in receptor complex and cell body (neuron). The associated genes with Avermectin are Homologous Gene, Genome, Gene Clusters and Structural gene.
To understand associated biological information of Avermectin, we collected biological information of abnormalities, associated pathways, cellular/molecular locations, biological functions, related genes/proteins, lipids and common seen animal/experimental models with organized paragraphs from literatures.
Avermectin is suspected in Parasitic infection, Parasitic Diseases, Scabies, Tropical Disease, Onchocerciasis, Filarial Elephantiases and other diseases in descending order of the highest number of associated sentences.
