1 The enzyme 7-dehydrocholesterol reductase (Dhcr7) catalyzes the reduction of 7-dehydrocholesterol (DHC), the terminal reaction of the pathway of cholesterol biosynthesis. Cholesterol 7-dehydrocholesterol reductase Rattus norvegicus
2 Thus, regulation of Dhcr7 through the combined mechanisms of tissue-specific transcription and differential alternative splicing appears unique among enzymes characterized from the entire post-lanosterol pathway in cholesterol biosynthesis. Cholesterol 7-dehydrocholesterol reductase Rattus norvegicus
