Repeated evolution of cytochrome P450-mediated spiroketal steroid biosynthesis in plants

Diosgenin is a spiroketal natural product that is used as a precursor in the industrial synthesis of steroids. Here, the authors identified key cytochrome P450 enzymes responsible for the conversion of cholesterol to diosgenin from two phylogenetical distinct diosgenin-producing plant species.
