gene: dhcr-7 [Browse genome (BioProject PRJNA13758)] [Search on AGR]
Caenorhabditis elegans Predicted to enable 7-dehydrocholesterol reductase activity. Predicted to be involved in brassinosteroid biosynthetic process and cholesterol biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in several diseases, including Greenberg dysplasia; Pelger-Huet anomaly; and autoimmune disease (multiple). Is an ortholog of human DHCR7 (7-dehydrocholesterol reductase).
