Inhibitors of delta24(25) sterol methyltransferase block sterol synthesis and cell proliferation in Pneumocystis carinii.

Detailed analysis of the endogenous sterol content of purified Pneumocystis carinii preparations by gas-liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry suggested that this parasite can both synthesize de novo steroid skeletons (to produce delta7 sterols) and take them from the infected host (lead...
