Exploiting in silico structural analysis to introduce emerging genotype–phenotype correlations in DHCR24-related sterol biosynthesis disorder: a case study
4 Jan 2024
Abstract excerpt
Desmosterolosis is a rare sterol biosynthesis disorder characterized by multiple congenital anomalies, failure to thrive, severe developmental delay, progressive epileptic encephalopathy, and elevated levels of desmosterol caused by biallelic mutations of DHCR24 encoding 3-β-hydroxysterol Δ-24-reductase. DHCR24 is regarded as the key enzyme of cholesterol synthesis in the metabolism of brain cholesterol as it...
