CYP3A4 Recombinant Rabbit Monoclonal Antibody [JA11-33]

Function

CYP3A, the most abundant p450 enzyme in human liver, is responsible for the metabolism of more than 50% of the clinical test & lt; RTI ID = 0.0 & gt; (cYP3A) genes encode monooxygenases-enzymes which catalyze drug metabolism and the synthesis of cholesterol, steroids and other lipids. CYP3A family members localize in organs that associate with drug disposition, including the liver, gastrointestinal tract and kidney. The CYP3A cluster maps to gene locus 7q22.1 and consists of four genes (CYP3A4, CYP3A5, CYP3A7 and CYP3A43) and two pseudogenes ( CYP3A4 is abundant in the endoplasmic reticulum of liver cells and upper intestinal enterocytes. CYP3A4 expression is isducible by glucocorticoids pharmacological agents.

Sequence Similarity

Belongs to the cytochrome P450 family.

Tissue Specificity

Expressed in prostate and liver. According to some authors, it is not expressed in brain. According to others, weak levels of expression are measured in some brain locations. Also expressed in epithelium of the small intestine and large intestine, bile duct, nasal mucosa, kidney, adrenal cortex, epithelium of the gastric mucosa with intestinal metaplasia, gallbladder, intercalated ducts of the pancreas, chief cells of the parathyroid and the corpus luteum of the ovary (at protein level).

Post-translational Modification

Polyubiquitinated in the presence of AMFR and UBE2G1 and also STUB1/CHIP and UBE2D1 (in vitro).
