Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways involving steroids.

Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the chemical reactions and pathways by which individual cells transform chemical substances.

The process that results in the patterns of cell differentiation that will arise in an embryo.

Any developmental process that results in the creation of defined areas or spaces within an organism to which cells respond and eventually are instructed to differentiate.

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of cholesterol efflux. Cholesterol efflux is the directed movement of cholesterol, cholest-5-en-3-beta-ol, out of a cell or organelle.

Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the directed movement of cholesterol into, out of or within a cell, or between cells, by means of some agent such as a transporter or pore.

Catalysis of the reaction: (3E,1Z)-4,5-9,10-diseco-3-hydroxy-5,9,17-trioxoandrosta-1(10),2-diene-4-oate + H2O = (2E,4E)-2-hydroxyhexa-2,4-dienoate + 9,17-dioxo-1,2,3,4,10,19-hexanorandrostan-5-oate + H+.

The process, occurring after animal embryonic development, by which anatomical structures are generated and organized.

The process in which anatomical structures are generated and organized. Morphogenesis pertains to the creation of form.

Morphogenesis of an animal organ. An organ is defined as a tissue or set of tissues that work together to perform a specific function or functions. Morphogenesis is the process in which anatomical structures are generated and organized. Organs are commonly observed as visibly distinct structures, but may also exist as loosely associated clusters of cells that work together to perform a specific function or functions.

Catalysis of the reaction: citronellol + NAD+ = citronellal + NADH + H+.

Combining with a cytokinin and transmitting the signal from one side of the membrane to the other to initiate a change in cell activity.

OBSOLETE. Any process that increases the frequency or rate of receptor biosynthesis. Receptor biosynthesis is the collection of chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of a receptor molecule, a macromolecule that undergoes combination with a hormone, neurotransmitter, drug or intracellular messenger to initiate a change in cell function.

Combining with a cytokinin and transmitting the signal from one side of the membrane to the other to initiate a change in cell activity by catalysis of the reaction: ATP + a protein-L-histidine = ADP + a protein-L-histidine phosphate.

Combining with a signal and transmitting the signal from one side of a membrane to the other to initiate a change in cell activity by catalysis of the reaction: ATP + a protein-L-histidine = ADP + a protein-L-histidine phosphate.

Catalysis of the reaction: 3-(6'-methylthio)hexylmalate <=> H+ + 2-oxo-9-methylthiononanoate + carbon dioxide.

Catalysis of the reaction: 2-oxo-9-methylthiononanoate + acetyl-CoA + H2O <=> H+ + 2-(7'-methylthio)heptylmalate + coenzyme A.

Catalysis of the transfer of an acyl group from one compound (donor) to another (acceptor), with the acyl group being converted into alkyl on transfer.

Catalysis of the reaction: 2-(7'-methylthio)heptylmalate <=> 3-(7'-methylthio)heptylmalate.

Catalysis of the transfer of a hydroxyl group from one position to another within a single molecule.
