SpeciesHomo sapiens (Human)
Gene Namecholesterol 25-hydroxylase
Gene SymbolCH25H
SynonymsC25H
Alternate namescholesterol 25-hydroxylase; h25OH; cholesterol 25-monooxygenase
Chromosome10
Map Location10q23
EC Number1.14.99.38
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.
