Structure of cholesterol 24-hydroxylase gene. The positions of introns and exons in the gene are indicated on a schematic of the protein. A conserved amino acid (Cys-437) that is postulated to be the sixth ligand of the heme cofactor is shown below the drawing. Introns interrupt codons of the murine and human 24-hydroxylase genes at the same positions.
