Gene Information

human ... CYP4B1(1580)

General description

This gene encodes a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes. The cytochrome P450 proteins are monooxygenases which catalyze many reactions involved in drug metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol, steroids and other lipids. This protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum. In rodents, the homologous protein has been shown to metabolize certain carcinogens; however, the specific function of the human protein has not been determined. Two transcript variants encoding slightly different isoforms have been found for this gene. (provided by RefSeq)

Biochem/physiol Actions

CYP4B1 (cytochrome P450, family 4, subfamily B, polypeptide 1) plays an important role in wound healing and inflammation in the ocular surface by increasing the production of the inflammatory 12-hydroxyeicosanoids in the corneal epithelium. It is also involved in the metabolism of several xenobiotics such as 2-aminofluorene, 2-naphthylamine and benzidine.

Cytochrome P450 4B1 (CYP4B1) is involved in the metabolism of several xenobiotics, such as 2-aminofluorene, 2-naphthylamine and benzidine. CYP4B1 allelic variants CYP4B1*1-*7 were recently identified. We thus hypothesized that CYP4B1 genotypes may modify bladder cancer risk. We examined the CYP4B1

Injury to the ocular surface provokes an inflammatory response that is mediated, at least in part, by corneal epithelial derived 12-hydroxyeicosanoids (HETEs) including 12-HETE and 12-HETrE; both metabolites exhibit potent inflammatory and angiogenic properties and are formed by a cytochrome
