medicine | the chemotherapy of leishmaniasis is a serious problem in the field of neglected tropical diseases. Since the biosynthesis of specific sterols is vital for effective survival, normal proliferation and infectivity of Leishmania parasites, the sterol 14alpha-demethylase inhibitors obtained from azole antifungal drug discovery programs can be used in antileishmanial therapy | Leishmania mexicana |

malfunction | inactivation of the enzyme in promastigotes results in disruption of the membrane stability, increase of membrane fluidity, failure to maintain lipid rafts, and hypersensitivity to heat stress along with altered morphology and cytokinesis defect. The effect deletion on lipid composition and sterol biosynthesis is a complete loss of ergostane-based sterols (5-dehydroepisterol, ergosterol, and episterol) and accumulation of toxic 14-methylated sterols | Leishmania mexicana |

physiological function | the enzyme is required for effective survival, normal proliferation and infectivity of Leishmania major parasites in the mammalian host. The enzyme is not required for promastigote survival or proliferation, but it is involved in the control of cell shape, differentiation, and division | Leishmania mexicana |
