The 14 pages that link to Isoprenoid, each with the reason it gives.

• TerpeneNarrower topic: This broader family includes terpenes and their oxygenated or otherwise modified relatives.

• StatinRelated: Mevalonate pathway inhibition can affect isoprenoid production as well as cholesterol synthesis.

• IsopreneRelated: This broader family includes compounds biosynthesized from activated isoprene units.

• Mevalonate pathwayNarrower topic: Both major biosynthetic routes feed the broader family of isoprenoids.

• HMG-CoA reductaseNarrower topic: The enzyme’s pathway produces precursors for isoprenoids as well as cholesterol.

• Terpene synthaseNarrower topic: Terpenes belong to this broader family of compounds.

• Archaeal membraneRelated: Branched isoprenoid chains form the hydrophobic portions of many archaeal lipids.

• TerpenoidNarrower topic: This broader term groups terpenoids with related compounds under a shared biosynthetic origin.

• SqualeneNarrower topic: Squalene belongs to this family through its isoprenoid-derived carbon skeleton.

• SesquiterpeneNarrower topic: This broader family includes sesquiterpenes and many non-terpene biological products.

• UbiquinoneRelated: Ubiquinone’s long hydrophobic tail is assembled from isoprenoid units.

• Farnesyl pyrophosphateNarrower topic: FPP belongs to this family’s biosynthetic network and is assembled from its five-carbon building blocks.

• FucoxanthinNarrower topic: Fucoxanthin’s carbon skeleton is produced through isoprenoid metabolism.

• Organic geochemistryNarrower topic: Many diagnostic hydrocarbon biomarkers in rocks and oils belong to this molecular family.
