Background: 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 enzyme is a hydroxylase that metabolizes arachidonic acid, docosahexaenoic acid, and other long chain fatty acids. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],
Function:catalytic activity:RH + reduced flavoprotein + O(2) = ROH + oxidized flavoprotein + H(2)O.,cofactor:Heme group.,developmental stage:Expressed in fetal thymus.,function:Catalyzes the hydroxylation of arachidonic acid, docosahexaenoic acid and other long chain fatty acids. May modulate the arachidonic acid signaling pathway and play a role in other fatty acid signaling processes.,similarity:Belongs to the cytochrome P450 family.,tissue specificity:Widely expressed with stronger expression in thymus, heart and cerebellum.,
Subcellular Location:Endoplasmic reticulum membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein . Microsome membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein . Mitochondrion inner membrane ; Multi-pass membrane protein .
Expression:Widely expressed with stronger expression in thymus, heart and cerebellum.
