Table 4 Cholesterol biosynthesis pathway. This table lists the proteins that are the constituents of the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway (Figure 5E). Column 1 gives the uniprot identifier, column 2 the short gene description, column 3 the gene symbol and column 4 highlights the features of this protein, including whether or not it is a HIV-1, siRNA or drug target.
