1 Pelger-Huet anomaly and Greenberg skeletal dysplasia: LBR-associated diseases of cholesterol metabolism. Cholesterol lamin B receptor Homo sapiens
2 A new study has used CRISPR/Cas9-mediated genetic manipulations in a human cell system to determine that the molecular etiology of these previously poorly understood disorders is a defect in cholesterol synthesis due to loss of LBR-associated sterol C14 reductase activity. Cholesterol lamin B receptor Homo sapiens
3 The study furthermore determined that disease-associated LBR point mutations reduce sterol C14 reductase activity by decreasing the affinity of LBR for the reducing agent NADPH. NADP lamin B receptor Homo sapiens
4 The study furthermore determined that disease-associated LBR point mutations reduce sterol C14 reductase activity by decreasing the affinity of LBR for the reducing agent NADPH. NADP lamin B receptor Homo sapiens
