Summary

CYP2U1 (cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily U member 1, HGNC:20582) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 4q25, encoding Cytochrome P450 2U1 (Q7Z449). A cytochrome P450 monooxygenase involved in the metabolism of arachidonic acid and its conjugates.

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 enzyme is a hydroxylase that metabolizes arachidonic acid, docosahexaenoic acid, and other long chain fatty acids.

Function. A cytochrome P450 monooxygenase involved in the metabolism of arachidonic acid and its conjugates. Mechanistically, uses molecular oxygen inserting one oxygen atom into a substrate, and reducing the second into a water molecule, with two electrons provided by NADPH via cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR; NADPH-ferrihemoprotein reductase). Acts as an omega and omega-1 hydroxylase for arachidonic acid and possibly for other long chain fatty acids. May modulate the arachidonic acid signaling pathway and play a role in other fatty acid signaling processes. May down-regulate the biological activities of N-arachidonoyl-serotonin, an endocannabinoid that has anti-nociceptive effects through inhibition of fatty acid amide hydrolase FAAH, TRPV1 receptor and T-type calcium channels. Catalyzes C-2 oxidation of the indole ring of N-arachidonoyl-serotonin forming a less active product 2-oxo-N-arachidonoyl-serotonin.

Subcellular location. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Microsome membrane. Mitochondrion inner membrane.

Tissue specificity. Widely expressed with stronger expression in thymus, heart and cerebellum.

Disease relevance. Spastic paraplegia 56, autosomal recessive, with or without pseudoxanthoma elasticum (SPG56) [MIM:615030] A form of spastic paraplegia, a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by a slow, gradual, progressive weakness and spasticity of the lower limbs. Rate of progression and the severity of symptoms are quite variable. Initial symptoms may include difficulty with balance, weakness and stiffness in the legs, muscle spasms, and dragging the toes when walking. Complicated forms are recognized by additional variable features including spastic quadriparesis, seizures, dementia, amyotrophy, extrapyramidal disturbance, cerebral or cerebellar atrophy, optic atrophy, and peripheral neuropathy, as well as by extra neurological manifestations. In SPG56, upper limbs are often also affected. Some SPG56 patients may have a subclinical axonal neuropathy; others also have pseudoxanthoma elasticum. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Pathway. Lipid metabolism; arachidonate metabolism.

Similarity. Belongs to the cytochrome P450 family.
