Multiple triterpenes , including achilleol A ( 1 ), protosta‐12,24‐dien‐3β‐ol ( 2 ), lanosterol ( 3 ), and parkeol ( 4 ; 14:26:51:9) were isolated from an ERG7 oxidosqualene‐lanosterol cyclase‐deficient Saccharomyces cerevisiae TKW14 strain that expresses the ERG7 H234Y mutation. The results indicate a role for H234 in modulating multiple aspects of the oxidosqualene cyclization/rearrangement reaction, including cyclization, rearrangement, and deprotonation.
