Cholesterol biosynthesis pathway in hepatocytes (WP5329)

Homo sapiens

This pathway was constructed based on the Brown et al 2021 book chapter (Cholesterol Synthesis), combined with the Reactome Cholesterol Synthesis pathway (DOI:10.3180/R-HSA-191273.7) and the WikiPathways WP4718 (Cholesterol metabolism with Bloch and Kandutsch-Russell pathways (Homo sapiens)). Additional information was incorporated based on the literature. All protein were curated for cell-specific (hepatocyte) isoforms.
