Background
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. The enzyme starts the process of inactivating and degrading leukotriene B4, a potent mediator of inflammation. This gene is part of a cluster of cytochrome P450 genes on chromosome 19. Another member of this family, CYP4F11, is approximately 16 kb away.,CYP4F2,CPF2,Cancer,Signal Transduction,Endocrine & Metabolism,Mitochondrial metabolism,Cytochromes,Lipid Metabolism,Cytochromes,Lipases,Drug metabolism,Immunology & Inflammation,Cell Intrinsic Innate Immunity Signaling Pathway,Cardiovascular,Lipids,CYP4F2
