    text
  • dual localization of NSDHL within ER membranes and on the surface of lipid droplets may provide another mechanism for regulation of the levels and sites of accumulation of intracellular cholesterol
  • basic FUNCTION
  • 3beta-hydroxysterol dehydrogenase thought to function in the demethylation of sterol precursors in one of the later steps of cholesterol biosynthesis
