RP-HPLC sterols analysis from UCD 67385 and 385-cyp61hph/cyp61zeostrains. Chromatograms (at 280 nm) correspond to sterols extracted from strains as described in the Materials and Methods section. Beside each peak (peaks Nº 1 to 3), the corresponding spectra were included. Sterols were analyzed from UCD 67–385 wild-type (A), UCD 67–385 wild-type co-injected with standard ergosterol (B), 385-cyp61hph/cyp61zeo mutant (C) and 385-cyp61hph/cyp61zeo co-injected with standard ergosterol. Ergosterol corresponds to peak Nº 1.
