SLC27A1 | solute carrier family 27 (fatty acid transporter), member 1; Involved in translocation of long-chain fatty acids (LFCA) across the plasma membrane. The LFCA import appears to be hormone-regulated in a tissue-specific manner. In adipocytes, but not myocytes, insulin induces a rapid translocation of FATP1 from intracellular compartments to the plasma membrane, paralleled by increased LFCA uptake. May act directly as a bona fide transporter, or alternatively, in a cytoplasmic or membrane- associated multimeric protein complex to trap and draw fatty acids towards accumulation. Plays a pivo [...] (646 aa) | |||
HSD17B7 | hydroxysteroid (17-beta) dehydrogenase 7; Responsible for the reduction of the keto group on the C-3 of sterols (341 aa) | |||

SLC27A6 | solute carrier family 27 (fatty acid transporter), member 6; Involved in translocation of long-chain fatty acids (LFCA) across the plasma membrane. Thought to function as the predominant fatty acid protein transporter in heart (619 aa) | |||
SLC27A5 | solute carrier family 27 (fatty acid transporter), member 5; Acyl-CoA synthetase involved in bile acid metabolism. Proposed to catalyze the first step in the conjugation of C24 bile acids (choloneates) to glycine and taurine before excretion into bile canaliculi by activating them to their CoA thioesters. Seems to activate secondary bile acids entering the liver from the enterohepatic circulation. In vitro, also activates 3-alpha,7- alpha,12-alpha-trihydroxy-5-beta-cholestanate (THCA), the C27 precursor of cholic acid deriving from the de novo synthesis from cholesterol (690 aa) | |||
SC5DL | sterol-C5-desaturase (ERG3 delta-5-desaturase homolog, S. cerevisiae)-like; Catalyzes a dehydrogenation to introduce C5-6 double bond into lathosterol (299 aa) | |||
SQLE | squalene epoxidase; Catalyzes the first oxygenation step in sterol biosynthesis and is suggested to be one of the rate-limiting enzymes in this pathway (574 aa) | |||
SLC27A2 | solute carrier family 27 (fatty acid transporter), member 2; Acyl-CoA synthetase probably involved in bile acid metabolism. Proposed to activate C27 precurors of bile acids to their CoA thioesters derivatives before side chain cleavage via peroxisomal beta-oxidation occurs. In vitro, activates 3-alpha,7- alpha,12-alpha-trihydroxy-5-beta-cholestanate (THCA), the C27 precursor of cholic acid deriving from the de novo synthesis from cholesterol. Does not utilize C24 bile acids as substrates. In vitro, also activates long- and branched-chain fatty acids and may have additional roles in fat [...] (620 aa) | |||
CYP39A1 | cytochrome P450, family 39, subfamily A, polypeptide 1; Involved in the bile acid metabolism. Has a preference for 24-hydroxycholesterol, and converts it into a 7-alpha- hydroxylated product (469 aa) | |||
SLC27A4 | solute carrier family 27 (fatty acid transporter), member 4; Involved in translocation of long-chain fatty acids (LFCA) across the plasma membrane. Appears to be the principal fatty acid transporter in small intestinal enterocytes. Plays a role in the formation of the epidermal barrier. Required for fat absorption in early embryogenesis. Has acyl-CoA ligase activity for long-chain and very-long-chain fatty acids (By similarity) (643 aa) | |||
CYP7A1 | cytochrome P450, family 7, subfamily A, polypeptide 1; Catalyzes a rate-limiting step in cholesterol catabolism and bile acid biosynthesis by introducing a hydrophilic moiety at position 7 of cholesterol. Important for cholesterol homeostasis (504 aa) | |||
CYP7B1 | cytochrome P450, family 7, subfamily B, polypeptide 1 (506 aa) | |||
CYP8B1 | cytochrome P450, family 8, subfamily B, polypeptide 1; Involved in bile acid synthesis and is responsible for the conversion of 7 alpha-hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one into 7 alpha, 12 alpha-dihydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one. Responsible for the balance between formation of cholic acid and chenodeoxycholic acid. Has a rather broad substrate specificity including a number of 7-alpha- hydroxylated C27 steroids (501 aa) | |||

SREBF2 | sterol regulatory element binding transcription factor 2; Transcriptional activator required for lipid homeostasis. Regulates transcription of the LDL receptor gene as well as the cholesterol and to a lesser degree the fatty acid synthesis pathway (By similarity).
