Cycloartenol is an important triterpenoid of the sterol class which is found in plants. It is the starting point for the synthesis of almost all plant steroids,[1] making them chemically distinct from the steroids of fungi and animals which are instead produced from lanosterol.

Synthesis

The biosynthesis of cycloartenol starts from the triterpenoid squalene. It is the first precursor in the biosynthesis of other stanols and sterols, referred to as phytostanols and phytosterols in photosynthetic organisms and plants. The identities and distribution of phytostanols and phytosterols is characteristic of a plant species.

gollark: They have 600 times more testing code than, well, library code, and cover *all* of the machine code code paths.

gollark: The only possible way you could SQL-inject it (technically it wouldn't be SQL injection but same principle) would be exploiting some kind of bug in SQLite itself. This is unlikely, as SQLite may literally be one of the most well-tested pieces of software in existence.

gollark: It's using SQLite's parameter binding thingy.
