Biological function summary
The role of C-4 Methylsterol Oxidase is important for the efficient production of cholesterol which is a component of cell membranes and precursor for steroid hormones. This enzyme belongs to the sterol C4-methyl oxidase complex contributing to the fine-tuning of sterol intermediates during their conversion to cholesterol. Its activity ensures the reduction of certain sterol precursors and the stability of membrane fluidity across diverse physiological conditions.
Pathways
The enzyme is involved in the Kandutsch-Russell pathway and the Bloch pathway both of which are essential for cholesterol biosynthesis. These pathways manage the flow of sterol intermediates toward cholesterol while maintaining cellular homeostasis. SC4MOL interacts with other important enzymes like HMG-CoA reductase and lanosterol synthase playing a critical role in these metabolic processes.

General info
Function
Catalyzes the three-step monooxygenation required for the demethylation of 4,4-dimethyl and 4alpha-methylsterols, which can be subsequently metabolized to cholesterol (PubMed : 21285510, PubMed : 23583456, PubMed : 26114596, PubMed : 28673550, PubMed : 36958722). Also involved in drug metabolism, as it can metabolize eldecalcitol (ED-71 or 1alpha,25-dihydroxy-2beta-(3-hydroxypropoxy)-cholecalciferol), a second-generation vitamin D analog, into 1alpha,2beta,25-trihydroxy vitamin D3; this reaction occurs via enzymatic hydroxylation and spontaneous O-dehydroxypropylation (PubMed : 26038696).
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the sterol desaturase family.
Post-translational modifications
Ubiquitinated by MARCHF6, leading to proteasomal degradation.
