Summary
CYP27A1 (cytochrome P450 family 27 subfamily A member 1, HGNC:2605) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 2q35, encoding Sterol 26-hydroxylase, mitochondrial (Q02318). Cytochrome P450 monooxygenase that catalyzes regio- and stereospecific hydroxylation of cholesterol and its derivatives.
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 mitochondrial protein oxidizes cholesterol intermediates as part of the bile synthesis pathway. Since the conversion of cholesterol to bile acids is the major route for removing cholesterol from the body, this protein is important for overall cholesterol homeostasis. Mutations in this gene cause cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis, a rare autosomal recessive lipid storage disease.

Function. Cytochrome P450 monooxygenase that catalyzes regio- and stereospecific hydroxylation of cholesterol and its derivatives. Hydroxylates (with R stereochemistry) the terminal methyl group of cholesterol side-chain in a three step reaction to yield at first a C26 alcohol, then a C26 aldehyde and finally a C26 acid. Regulates cholesterol homeostasis by catalyzing the conversion of excess cholesterol to bile acids via both the ’neutral’ (classic) and the ‘acid’ (alternative) pathways. May also regulate cholesterol homeostasis via generation of active oxysterols, which act as ligands for NR1H2 and NR1H3 nuclear receptors, modulating the transcription of genes involved in lipid metabolism. Plays a role in cholestanol metabolism in the cerebellum. Similarly to cholesterol, hydroxylates cholestanol and may facilitate sterol diffusion through the blood-brain barrier to the systemic circulation for further degradation. Also hydroxylates retinal 7-ketocholesterol, a noxious oxysterol with pro-inflammatory and pro-apoptotic effects, and may play a role in its elimination from the retinal pigment epithelium. May play a redundant role in vitamin D biosynthesis. Catalyzes 25-hydroxylation of vitamin D3 that is required for its conversion to a functionally active form.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts with HSP70; this interaction is required for initial targeting to mitochondria.
Subcellular location. Mitochondrion inner membrane.
Tissue specificity. Expressed in the neural retina and underlying retinal pigment epithelium (at protein level). Expressed in the gray and white matter of cerebellum (at protein level).
Disease relevance. Cerebrotendinous xanthomatosis (CTX) [MIM:213700] Rare sterol storage disorder characterized clinically by progressive neurologic dysfunction, premature atherosclerosis, and cataracts. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Pathway. Hormone biosynthesis; cholecalciferol biosynthesis. Steroid metabolism; cholesterol degradation. Lipid metabolism; bile acid biosynthesis.
Similarity. Belongs to the cytochrome P450 family.
