Background Descriptions	This gene encodes an enzyme of cholesterol biosynthesis. The encoded protein catalyzes the conversion of lathosterol into 7-dehydrocholesterol. Mutations in this gene have been associated with lathosterolosis. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Protein Information
Name	SC5D (HGNC:10547)
Function	Catalyzes the penultimate step of the biosynthesis of cholesterol, the dehydrogenation of lathosterol into 7- dehydrocholesterol (7-DHC). Cholesterol is the major sterol component in mammalian membranes and a precursor for bile acid and steroid hormone synthesis (PubMed:10786622, PubMed:38297129). In addition to its essential role in cholesterol biosynthesis, it also indirectly regulates ferroptosis through the production of 7-DHC. By diverting the spread of damage caused by peroxyl radicals from the phospholipid components to its sterol nucleus, 7-DHC prevents this form of cell death (PubMed:38297129, PubMed:38297130).
Cellular Location	Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein
