Background	Lathosterol oxidase (SC5D) is a ~35 kDa protein. Catalyzes the penultimate step of the biosynthesis of cholesterol, the dehydrogenation of lathosterol into 7-dehydrocholesterol (7-DHC). Cholesterol is the major sterol component in mammalian membranes and a precursor for bile acid and steroid hormone synthesis. In addition to its essential role in cholesterol biosynthesis, it also indirectly regulates ferroptosis through the production of 7-DHC. By diverting the spread of damage caused by peroxyl radicals from the phospholipid components to its sterol nucleus, 7-DHC prevents this form of cell death. 1. Nishi, S. et al.
