The encoded protein is a member of the terpene cyclase/mutase family and catalyzes the first step in the biosynthesis of cholesterol, steroid hormones, and vitamin D. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms.[provided by RefSeq, Feb 2009]. * **<color #00a2e8>UniProt Summary</color>**: Catalyzes the cyclization of (S)-2,3 oxidosqualene to lanosterol, a reaction that forms the sterol nucleus. Through the production of lanosterol may regulate lens protein aggregation and increase transparency. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26200341, ECO:0000269|PubMed:7639730}. <button type='primary' size='sm' modal='Pfam_Domains'>Pfam Domains</button> <button type='primary' size='sm' modal='GO_terms'>GO Terms</button> <modal id='Pfam_Domains' size='lg' title='Pfam Domains'> |Prenyltrans| </modal> <modal id='GO_terms' size='lg' title='GO Terms'> |lanosterol synthase activity| |triterpenoid biosynthetic process| |beta-amyrin synthase activity| |triterpenoid metabolic process| |terpenoid biosynthetic process| |isoprenoid biosynthetic process| |cholesterol biosynthetic process| |regulation of cholesterol biosynthetic process| |secondary alcohol biosynthetic process| |regulation of sterol biosynthetic process| |sterol biosynthetic process| |regulation of cholesterol metabolic process| |regulation of alcohol biosynthetic process| |lipid droplet| |regulation of steroid biosynthetic process| |alcohol biosynthetic process| |regulation of steroid metabolic process| |cholesterol metabolic process| |terpenoid metabolic process| |steroid biosynthetic process| |secondary alcohol metabolic process| |sterol metabolic process| |isoprenoid metabolic process| |organic hydroxy compound biosynthetic process| |regulation of lipid biosynthetic process| |steroid metabolic process| |regulation of protein stability| |alcohol metabolic process| |regulation of lipid metabolic process| |regulation of small molecule metabolic process| |organic hydroxy compound metabolic process| |lipid biosynthetic process| |small molecule biosynthetic process| |endoplasmic reticulum membrane| |cellular lipid metabolic process| |lipid metabolic process| |organic cyclic compound biosynthetic process| |small molecule metabolic process| |membrane| </modal> \\ === CRISPR Data === <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Compound_Hit'>Compound Hit</button> <button type='default' size='small' modal='Most_Correlated_Genes'>Most Correlated Genes in Chemogenomics</button> <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Essential_Avana'>Tissues where Essential in the Avana Dataset (DepMap 20Q1)</button> <modal id='Compound_Hit' size='lg' title='Compound Hit'> ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp452|Azithromycin 100μM R08 exp452]]|-2.02| |[[:results:exp302|35°C R06 exp302]]|-1.87| |[[:results:exp272|CHIR-124 0.04μM R06 exp272]]|-1.79| |[[:results:exp233|EPZ-5676 30μM R05 exp233]]|-1.77| |[[:results:exp289|Hydroxyurea 15μM R06 exp289]]|-1.72| |[[:results:exp46|HMS-I1 1μM R01 exp46]]|2.14| </modal> <modal id='Most_Correlated_Genes' size='lg' title='Most Correlated Genes in Chemogenomics'> No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics. </modal> <modal id='Essential_Avana' size='lg' title='Tissues where Essential in the Avana Dataset (DepMap 20Q1)'> Global Fraction of Cell Lines Where Essential: 0/739 ^Tissue^Fraction Of Cell Lines Where Essential^ |1290807.0|0/1| |909776.0|0/1| |bile duct|0/28| |blood|0/28| |bone|0/26| |breast|0/33| |central nervous system|0/56| |cervix|0/4| |colorectal|0/17| |esophagus|0/13| |fibroblast|0/1| |gastric|0/16| |kidney|0/21| |liver|0/20| |lung|0/75| |lymphocyte|0/16| |ovary|0/26| |pancreas|0/24| |peripheral nervous system|0/16| |plasma cell|0/15| |prostate|0/1| |skin|0/24| |soft tissue|0/9| |thyroid|0/2| |upper aerodigestive|0/22| |urinary tract|0/29| |uterus|0/5| </modal> == Essentiality in NALM6 == * **<color #00a2e8>Essentiality Rank</color>**: 5823 * **<color #00a2e8>Expression level (log2 read counts)</color>**: 7.29 <button type='primary' size='small' modal='Dist_expr'>Expression Distribution</button> <modal id='Dist_expr' size='lg' title='LSS Expression in NALM6 Cells: 7.29'> {{:chemogenomics:nalm6 dist.png?nolink |}} </modal> Last modified: 2026/01/07 22:36by 127.0.0.1
