DiseaseCongenital bile acid synthesis defect 1 (CBAS1) [MIM:607765]: A primary defect in bile synthesis leading to progressive liver disease. Clinical features include neonatal jaundice, severe intrahepatic cholestasis, cirrhosis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11067870, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12679481}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.
FunctionThe 3-beta-HSD enzymatic system plays a crucial role in the biosynthesis of all classes of hormonal steroids. HSD VII is active against four 7-alpha-hydroxylated sterols. Does not metabolize several different C(19/21) steroids as substrates. Involved in bile acid synthesis.
PathwayLipid metabolism; steroid biosynthesis.
SimilarityBelongs to the 3-beta-HSD family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationEndoplasmic reticulum membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
