Summary

CYP4V2 (cytochrome P450 family 4 subfamily V member 2, HGNC:23198) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 4q35.1-q35.2, encoding Cytochrome P450 4V2 (Q6ZWL3). A cytochrome P450 monooxygenase involved in fatty acid metabolism in the eye.

This gene encodes a member of the cytochrome P450 hemethiolate protein superfamily which are involved in oxidizing various substrates in the metabolic pathway. It is implicated in the metabolism of fatty acid precursors into n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids. Mutations in this gene result in Bietti crystalline corneoretinal dystrophy.

Cytochrome P450 4V2Q6ZWL3 (reviewed: Q6ZWL3)

Alternative names: Docosahexaenoic acid omega-hydroxylase CYP4V2, Long-chain fatty acid omega-monooxygenase

All UniProt accessions (1): Q6ZWL3

UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →

Function. A cytochrome P450 monooxygenase involved in fatty acid metabolism in the eye. Catalyzes the omega-hydroxylation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) docosahexaenoate (DHA) and its precursor eicosapentaenoate (EPA), and may contribute to the homeostasis of these retinal PUFAs. Omega hydroxylates saturated fatty acids such as laurate, myristate and palmitate, the catalytic efficiency decreasing in the following order: myristate > laurate > palmitate (C14>C12>C16). 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).

Subcellular location. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane.

Tissue specificity. Broadly expressed. Detected in heart, brain, placenta, lung, liver, skeletal muscle, kidney, pancreas, retina, retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and lymphocytes.

Disease relevance. Bietti crystalline corneoretinal dystrophy (BCD) [MIM:210370] An autosomal recessive ocular disease characterized by retinal degeneration and marginal corneal dystrophy. Typical features include multiple glistening intraretinal crystals scattered over the fundus, a characteristic degeneration of the retina, and sclerosis of the choroidal vessels, ultimately resulting in progressive night blindness and constriction of the visual field. Most patients have similar crystals at the corneoscleral limbus. Patients develop decreased vision, nyctalopia, and paracentral scotomata between the 2nd and 4th decade of life. Later, they develop peripheral visual field loss and marked visual impairment, usually progressing to legal blindness by the 5th or 6th decade of life. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Activity regulation. Inhibited by N-hydroxy-N’-(4-n-butyl-2-methylphenyl formamidine)(HET0016) with an IC(50) of 38 nM.

Pathway. Lipid metabolism; fatty acid metabolism.

Similarity. Belongs to the cytochrome P450 family.
