Answer
Aqeel Kahn,

There are several articles that will answer your question.  I will point you to those articles and ask that you read them yourself.  I cannot explain the disease and syndrome here -it would take too much space and be too complicated.

You can find other articles if you do a search for "cholesterol deficiency" or "Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome".

I hope this helps.
