Description
C-4 methyl sterol oxidase; catalyzes the first of three steps required to remove two C-4 methyl groups from an intermediate in ergosterol biosynthesis; mutants accumulate the sterol intermediate 4,4-dimethylzymosterol; human MSMO1 functionally complements the growth defect caused by repression of ERG25 expression [Source:SGD;Acc:S000003292]
