| Domain: | The histidine box domains may contain the active site and/or be involved in metal ion binding. | |
| Disruption phenotype: | Causes a lack of alpha-hydroxylated very long chain fatty acids in yeast sphingolipids. This confers resistance to syringomycin E, an antifungal cyclic lipodepsinonapeptide produced by Pseudomonas syringae. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10922463}. | |
| Miscellaneous: | Present with 3290 molecules/cell in log phase SD medium. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:14562106}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the sterol desaturase family. SCS7 subfamily. {ECO:0000305}. | |
