MSMO1

Gene Information
  • Official Symbol: MSMO1
  • Official Name: methylsterol monooxygenase 1
  • Aliases and Previous Symbols: N/A
  • Entrez ID: 6307
  • UniProt: Q15800
  • Interactions: BioGRID
  • PubMed articles: Open PubMed
  • OMIM: Open OMIM
Function Summary
  • Entrez Summary: Sterol-C4-mehtyl oxidase-like protein was isolated based on its similarity to the yeast ERG25 protein. It contains a set of putative metal binding motifs with similarity to that seen in a family of membrane desaturases-hydroxylases. The protein is localized to the endoplasmic reticulum membrane and is believed to function in cholesterol biosynthesis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].
  • UniProt Summary: Catalyzes the first step in the removal of the two C-4 methyl groups of 4,4-dimethylzymosterol. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P53045}.
