Reaction: 7alpha-hydroxycholesterol is oxidized and isomerized to 4-cholesten-7alpha-ol-3-one

- in pathway: Synthesis of bile acids and bile salts via 7alpha-hydroxycholesterol
7alpha-hydroxycholesterol and NAD+ react to form 4-cholesten-7alpha-ol-3-one, NADH, and H+, in a reaction catalyzed by HSD3B7 (3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 7) in the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Its function in vivo has been confirmed in studies of patients with defects in bile acid synthesis (Schwarz et al. 2000).

H+ [cytosol]
4CHOL7aOLONE [endoplasmic reticulum membrane]
NADH [cytosol]
