Gene information for CYP2U1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID113612
Official gene symbolCYP2U1
Full namecytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily U, polypeptide 1
Aliases,P450TEC,
Gene summaryThis 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]
