Fig. 1

Examples of sterols and steroids. The endogenous sterol pathway in yeast is highlighted in yellow, heterogenous synthesis of animal-derived sterols in yeast is highlighted in red, heterogenous synthesis of phytosterols in yeast is highlighted in green and steroids derived from sterols are highlighted in blue. Solid arrows represent de novo routes examined in yeast and dashed arrows indicate potential synthetic pathways. De novo biosynthesis of the steroidal compounds marked in blue are not yet realized in yeast
