Limb Deformities, Congenital | D017880 | 4 associated lipids |
Zymosterol is a lipid of Sterol Lipids (ST) class. Zymosterol is associated with abnormalities such as Congenital Abnormality, Coronary Arteriosclerosis, Liver diseases, Alzheimer's Disease and Virus Diseases. The involved functions are known as Process, enzyme activity, Anabolism, Transcription, Genetic and Synthesis. Zymosterol often locates in Cytosol, Mitochondria, Articular system, Protoplasm and Tissue membrane. The associated genes with Zymosterol are Genome, Homologous Gene, Amino Acids, Acidic, Peptide Fragments and DLC1 gene. The related lipids are zymosterol, Cardiolipins, 25-azacholesterol, Sterols and Steroids. The related experimental models are Knock-out.
To understand associated biological information of Zymosterol, 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.
Zymosterol is suspected in Leishmaniasis, Congenital Abnormality, Coronary Arteriosclerosis, Liver diseases, Alzheimer's Disease, Virus Diseases and other diseases in descending order of the highest number of associated sentences.
