Cytochrome P450 proteins are heme-thiolate monooxygenases that mediate NADPH-dependent electron transport and function to oxidize a variety of structurally unrelated compounds, including steroids, fatty acids and xenobiotics. Specifically, Cytochrome P450s are responsible for metabolizing arachidonic acid to hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (a regulator of blood pressure) and epoxyeicosatrienoic acid (a molecule involved in signaling events). CYP4X1 (cytochrome P450, family 4, subfamily X, polypeptide 1) is a 509 amino acid peripheral membrane protein of the microsome and endoplasmic reticulum. Expressed in brain, aorta and trachea, CYP4X1 may play a role in neurovascular function and is encoded by a gene that maps to human chromosome 1p33. Chromosome 1 spans 260 million base pairs, contains over 3,000 genes, and houses a large number of disease-associated genes, including those that are involved in familial adenomatous polyposis, Stickler syndrome, Parkinson’s disease and Gaucher disease.
