Summary
Predicted to enable cholesterol binding activity. Acts upstream of or within cellular lipid metabolic process; glucocorticoid metabolic process; and regulation of steroid biosynthetic process. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including adrenal gland; extraembryonic component; and reproductive system. Used to study congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital adrenal hyperplasia. Orthologous to human STAR (steroidogenic acute regulatory protein). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
