DESMOSTEROL

DESMOSTEROL is a lipid of Sterol Lipids (ST) class. Desmosterol is associated with abnormalities such as Cataract, Congenital Abnormality, Liver diseases, Erectile dysfunction and Multiple congenital anomalies. The involved functions are known as Bulla, Methylation, cholesterol biosynthetic process, Process and cholesterol efflux. Desmosterol often locates in Body tissue, Tissue membrane, Plasma membrane, Pore and Endoplasmic Reticulum. The associated genes with DESMOSTEROL are P4HTM gene, SHH gene, WDR48 gene, CFLAR gene and SLC33A1 gene. The related lipids are Sterols, androstanol, Steroids, Unilamellar Vesicles and 7-dehydrocholesterol. The related experimental models are Transgenic Model and Rodent Model.
