Literature associating LSS and spinal stenosis

LSS [ENSP00000380837]

Lanosterol synthase (2,3-oxidosqualene-lanosterol cyclase); Catalyzes the cyclization of (S)-2,3 oxidosqualene to lanosterol, a reaction that forms the sterol nucleus. Through the production of lanosterol may regulate lens protein aggregation and increase transparency; Belongs to the terpene cyclase/mutase family.

The disease-gene associations are derived from automatic text mining of the biomedical literature, manually curated database annotations, cancer mutation data, and genome-wide association studies. The confidence of each association is signified by stars, where ★★★★★ is the highest confidence and ★☆☆☆☆ is the lowest.
