Oxysterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase catalyzes hydroxylation of oxysterols and neurosterols and plays a role in the alternative bile acid synthesis pathway. This gene is widely expressed in many organs and peripheral tissues and may protect tissues from the…
Oxysterol 7alpha-hydroxylase has broad substrate specificity for sterol metabolites and may be involved in many metabolic processes including bile acid synthesis and neurosteroid metabolism. The cloned human oxysterol 7alpha-hydroxylase (CYP7B1) cDNA…
