Summary: Enables oxidoreductase activity, acting on the CH-CH group of donors, NAD or NADP as acceptor. Acts upstream of or within cholesterol biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum and membrane. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Is expressed in alar plate midbrain region; digestive system; nervous system; and optic vesicle. Used to study Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Behcet's disease and Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome. Orthologous to human DHCR7 (7-dehydrocholesterol reductase).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
