NCIt definition : Human EBP wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of Xp11.23 and is approximately
7 kb in length. This allele, which encodes 3-beta-hydroxysteroid-Delta(8),Delta(7)-isomerase
protein, plays a role in the metabolism of cholestenol. Mutation of the gene is associated
with X-linked dominant chondrodysplasia punctata 2 (also known as Conradi-Hunermann
syndrome or Happle syndrome) and male EBP disorder with neurological defects (MEND)
syndrome.;
