Convertibility of a saponifiable lipoidal derivative of 18-hydroxycorticosterone

Metabolic properties and subcellular localization of the biosynthesis of SM, a saponifiable 18-OH-B (18-Hydroxycorticosterone) derivative, were investigated. Homogenates biosynthesized SM at a nearly constant rate of 463 pmol/50 mg tissue during 30 min. This biosynthesis was more efficient at pH 7.4...
