GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
CYP4X1 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
MGC40051
Description
Cytochrome P450, family 4, subfamily X, polypeptide 1 (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
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. The expression pattern of a similar rat protein suggests that this protein may be involved in neurovascular function in the brain. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
