It looks like you're trying to add an image to the 7-Dehydrocholesterol reductase article - excellent. For more info on how to add images to Wikipedia articles, take a look at the Uploading images help file. -- MarcoTolo (talk) 16:54, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Image parameters
It looks like you got the image uploaded correctly, but had a little trouble with the syntax (this is a common issue - the WP editing curve can be pretty steep). I've added the image to the top of the article here; let me know if that isn't what you intended. -- MarcoTolo (talk) 17:37, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Image source
Thanks for your contribution to the 7-dehydrocholesterol reductase article. Concerning the figure, I wanted to document the origin of the crystallographic structure. Searching the PDB for "7-Dehydrocholesterol reductase", "1.3.1.21", etc. returned no hits. This make a little suspicious that the figure is of a different protein. Do you have the PDB accession code for this structure? Cheers. Boghog2 (talk) 19:14, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for adding the citation. The structures described in that paper are, , , , , , and which are of the oxysterol-binding protein. Hence I believe that you figure should be moved from 7-dehydrocholesterol reductase to the oxysterol-binding protein article. Cheers. Boghog2 (talk) 19:26, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. The recent edit you made to 7-Dehydrocholesterol reductase has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thank you.

Figures
Hi. I want to help. If you would let me know in a little more detail about your assignment, I could point you in the right direction. Unfortunately oxysterol-binding protein is not even remotely related in sequence, structure, or function to 7-dehydrocholesterol reductase (the former is a binding/transport protein and the later is an enzyme). The small molecule to which they bind to are similar, but the proteins are totally different. Hence it is very misleading to add a graphic of the crystallographic structure of oxysterol-binding protein to the 7-dehydrocholesterol reductase article. Based on your contribution, I don't think you will get a very good grade. Again, if you would indicate what your assignment is, I will try to help.
