Triterpenoid
Triterpenoid is a byproduct from squalene 2,3-oxide decomposition. Squalene is a precursor to sterol biosynthesis. Terpenes are derived biosynthetically from units of isoprene, which has the molecular formula C5H8. The basic molecular formulas of terpenes are multiples of that, (C5H8)n where n is the number of linked isoprene units. This is called the isoprene rule or the C5 rule. The isoprene units may be linked together "head to tail" to form linear chains or they may can be arranged to form rings. One can consider the isoprene unit as one of natures preferred building blocks. [HMDB] Triterpenoid is a byproduct from squalene 2,3-oxide decomposition.
