Triterpene (C30) Classes
Ring configuration
The basic structure is 4 carbon rings, cyclopenta[a]phenanthrene, gonane, or sterane. The rings B/C are always trans in all natural steroids. If the rings C/D are trans, it is called gonane. If its stereochemistry is unspecified, it is called sterane. Most steroids take gonane form, but in cardenolides and bufanolides, the rings C/D are cis.

Cyclopenta[a]phenanthrene | Gonane |
The majority of steroids have methyl groups sticking out from the bridgehead positions C-10 and C-13. When these methyl groups (or hydrogens) stand above the plane, they are called β-configuration. Those below the plane are called α-configuration. If the configuration at any site is unknown, it is indicated as ξ (Greek Xi). By default, hydrogen atoms or substituents at the positions C-8, 9, 10, 13, and 14 are assumed to be 8β, 9α, 10β, 13β, and 14α configurations. C-5 is a special position, because there are as many 5α steroids as 5β are.

Biosynthesis
The starting point is squalene, which is formed by joining two FPPs tail-to-tail. Bacterial cyclases use squalene directly, but those of the other species use 2,3-oxidosqualene for cyclization.
- In bacteria, squalene is cyclized via the 17α-deoxydammarenyl cation to hopene and other triterpenes[1].
- In eukaryotes, 2,3-oxidosqualene is cyclized via the protosteryl cation to lanosterol (animals and fungi) or cycloartenol (plants) by a series of 1,2-hydride and methyl shifts (Wagner-Meerwein shifts).[2]
- In plants, various triterpenes arise from the dammarenyl cation.

- ↑ Bacterial squalene cyclases can accept oxidosqualene as their substrates, but oxidosqualene usually does not exist in bacteria
- ↑ A trace amount of phytosterols comes from lanosterol. Ohyama K, Suzuki M, Kikuchi J, Saito K, Muranaka T (2009) Dual biosynthetic pathways to phytosterol via cycloartenol and lanosterol in Arabidopsis Proc Natl Acad Sci USA 106(3):725-730
