Anti-CYP4B1 antibody produced in mouse

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)

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.
