A P-450 heme-thiolate protein that is found in liver microsomes and in ciliary non-pigmented epithelium . The enzyme is specific for (24S)-cholest-5-ene-3β,24-diol, which is formed mostly in the brain by EC 1.14.14.25, cholesterol 24-hydroxylase. The direct electron donor to the enzyme is EC 1.6.2.4, NADPH—hemoprotein reductase.

The enzyme appears in viruses and cellular organisms
