Background:

P450 enzymes constitute a family of monooxygenase enzymes that are involved in the metabolism of a wide array of endogenous and xenobiotic compounds. P450 enzymes can be classified, based on their sequence similarities, into distinct subfamilies, which include CYP1A and CYP2A. The P450 family member, CYP19, catalyzes the conversion of C19 steroids to estrogens in various tissues, including placenta, gonads, adipose tissue, skin and brain. P450 cholesterol 7a-hydroxylase, CYP7A1, is the rate limiting enzyme of bile acid synthesis in the liver, and its expression is mediated by the bile acid receptor FXR. CYP27A1 catalyzes vitamin D 25-hydroxylation and is localized to the mitochondria in kidney and liver. Overexpression of CYP24 (encoding vitamin D 24 hydroxylase) is likely to lead to abrogation of growth control mediated by vitamin D.

Specificity:

CYP24A1 (R439) polyclonal antibody detects endogenous levels of CYP24A1 protein.
