Anti-MSMO1

Protein function: Catalyzes the three-step monooxygenation required for the demethylation of 4,4-dimethyl and 4alpha-methylsterols, which can be subsequently metabolized to cholesterol (PubMed:21285510, PubMed:28673550, PubMed:23583456, PubMed:26114596). Also involved in drug metabolism, as it can metabolize eldecalcitol (ED-71 or 1alpha,25- dihydroxy-2beta-(3-hydroxypropoxy)-cholecalciferol), a second- generation vitamin D analog, into 1alpha,2beta,25-trihydroxy vitamin D3, this reaction occurs via enzymatic hydroxylation and spontaneous O- dehydroxypropylation (PubMed:26038696). [The UniProt Consortium] Buffer: 40% glycerol and PBS (pH 7.2). 0.02% sodium azide is added as preservative. Highest antigen sequence identity to mouse: 88% and to rat: 84%
