NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)-dependent oxidoreductase which catalyzes the reduction of the delta-24 double bond of sterol intermediates during cholesterol biosynthesis. The protein contains a leader sequence that directs it to the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Missense mutations in this gene have been associated with desmosterolosis. Also, reduced expression of the gene occurs in the temporal cortex of Alzheimer disease patients and overexpression has been observed in adrenal gland cancer cells. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
Diminuto: the enzyme 3-beta-hydroxysterol delta-24-reductase (DHCR24), a member of the flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD)-dependent oxidoreductases, catalyzes the reduction of the delta-24 double bond of sterol intermediates during cholesterol biosynthesis. Highly expressed in brain and adrenal gland with moderate expression in liver, lung, spleen, prostate and spinal cord. Low expression in heart, uterus and prostate. Undetectable in blood cells. Overexpressed in the adenoma tissue of patients with Cushing's syndrome. May be involved in the molecular events of adrenocortical tumorigenesis by facilitating steroid synthesis and cell growth.

Product Notes
The Human DHCR24 dhcr24 (Catalog #AAA2802235) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA2802235 ELISA Kit recognizes Human DHCR24. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Delta (24)-sterol reductase (DHCR24), ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
