Comments
Comment typeDescription
CofactorName=heme; Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:30413; Evidence={ECO:0000250};
FunctionRequired to form the C-22 double bond in the sterol side chain. Possesses C-22 desaturase activity toward beta-sitosterol and produces stigmasterol. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17909855}.
MiscellaneousPlants overexpressing CYP710A4 show higher levels of stigmasterol and lower levels of beta-sitosterol than the wild- type.
PathwaySteroid biosynthesis; sterol biosynthesis.
Sequence CautionSequence=BX820851; Type=Miscellaneous discrepancy; Note=Sequencing errors.; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
SimilarityBelongs to the cytochrome P450 family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationMembrane {ECO:0000305}; Single-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000305}.
