Lumisterol, 7DHC, D3 and 1,25(OH)2D3 were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO). 20(OH)7DHC, 20(OH)L3, pL, 17(OH)pL and 17,20(OH)2pL were synthesized as previously described32 (link), 34 (link), 43 (link); while 22(OH)L3, 20,22(OH)2L3 and 24(OH)L3 were produced from L3 enzymatically using purified bovine CYP11A140 (link). These compounds were purified by reverse-phase HPLC; their structures and purities were determined by NMR and mass spectrometry32 (link), 34 (link), 40 (link), 43 (link).
