This gene, CYP2B6, 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 protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and its expression is induced by phenobarbital.
The enzyme is known to metabolize some xenobiotics, such as the anti-cancer drugs cyclophosphamide and ifosphamide.
Transcript variants for this gene have been described; however, it has not been resolved whether these transcripts are in fact produced by this gene or by a closely related pseudogene, CYP2B7.
Both the gene and the pseudogene are located in the middle of a CYP2A pseudogene found in a large cluster of cytochrome P450 genes from the CYP2A, CYP2B and CYP2F subfamilies on chromosome 19q.
[provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]CYP2B6 (Cytochrome P450 Family 2 Subfamily B Member 6) is a Protein Coding gene.
Diseases associated with CYP2B6 include efavirenz, poor metabolism of and cyp2b6-related altered drug metabolism.
Among its related pathways are Metabolism and cytochrome P450.
GO annotations related to this gene include iron ion binding and oxidoreductase activity, acting on paired donors, with incorporation or reduction of molecular oxygen.
An important paralog of this gene is CYP2C19.
ytochromes P450 are a group of heme-thiolate monooxygenases.
In liver microsomes, this enzyme is involved in an NADPH-dependent electron transport pathway.
It oxidizes a variety of structurally unrelated compounds, including steroids, fatty acids, and xenobiotics.
Acts as a 1,4-cineole 2-exo-monooxygenase.
