Gene information for CH25H (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID9023
Official gene symbolCH25H
Full namecholesterol 25-hydroxylase
Aliases,C25H,
Gene summaryThis is an intronless gene that is involved in cholesterol and lipid metabolism. The encoded protein is a membrane protein and contains clusters of histidine residues essential for catalytic activity. Unlike most other sterol hydroxylases, this enzyme is a member of a small family of enzymes that utilize diiron cofactors to catalyze the hydroxylation of hydrophobic substrates. [provided by RefSeq]
