cholesterol + AH2 + O2 = 25-hydroxycholesterol + A + H2O
25-hydroxycholesterol + reduced [NADPH--hemoprotein reductase] + O2 = 7alpha,25-dihydroxycholesterol + oxidized [NADPH--hemoprotein reductase] + H2O + H(+)
cholesterol + NADPH + O2 + H(+) = 25-hydroxycholesterol + NADP(+) + H2O
cholesterol + reduced [NADPH--hemoprotein reductase] + O2 = 25-hydroxycholesterol + oxidized [NADPH--hemoprotein reductase] + H2O + H(+)
