Abstract
The C-2 protons of mevalonic acid are incorporated into C-7 and C-15 of fusidic acid with retention of their stereochemical integrity; this finding is in agreement with the accepted mode of squalene-oxide cyclization to the C-20 protosterol cation, and supports the proposed mechanisms for the enzymatic events at C-7 and C-15 in the biosynthesis of cholesterol in rat liver.
