Function
FUNCTION: Catalyzes the first step in the removal of the two C-4 methyl groups of 4,4-dimethylzymosterol. {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:P53045}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Microcephaly, congenital cataract, and psoriasiform dermatitis (MCCPD) [MIM:616834]: An autosomal recessive inborn error of cholesterol metabolism characterized by accumulation of a large amount of methylsterols, particularly dimethylsterols, in affected individuals. Patients manifest psoriasiform dermatitis, arthralgias, congenital cataracts, microcephaly, and developmental delay. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21285510, ECO:0000269|PubMed:24144731}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
