Sequence statusComplete.
Protein existenceEvidence at protein level

General annotation (Comments)

Function

Catalyzes the formation of 25-hydroxycholesterol from cholesterol, leading to repress cholesterol biosynthetic enzymes. May play an important role in regulating lipid metabolism by synthesizing a corepressor that blocks sterol regulatory element binding protein (SREBP) processing. In testis, production of 25-hydroxycholesterol by macrophages may play a role in Leydig cell differentiation. Ref.1

Catalytic activity

Cholesterol + AH2 + O2 = 25-hydroxycholesterol + A + H2O.

Cofactor

Iron.

Subcellular location

Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein By similarity.

Post-translational modification

N-glycosylated. Ref.1

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the sterol desaturase family.
