Gene information for CYP2A7 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID1549
Official gene symbolCYP2A7
Full namecytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily A, polypeptide 7
Aliases,CPA7,CPAD,CYP2A,CYPIIA7,P450-IIA4,
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 protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum; its substrate has not yet been determined. This gene, which produces two transcript variants, is part of a large cluster of cytochrome P450 genes from the CYP2A, CYP2B and CYP2F subfamilies on chromosome 19q. [provided by RefSeq]
