CYP4F12 antibody

Background of CYP4F12 antibody

CYP4F12 is a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes. The cytochrome P450 proteins are monooxygeses which catalyze many reactions involved in drug metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol, steroids and other lipids. Tt likely localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum. When expressed in yeast the enzyme is capable of oxdizing arachidonic acid; however, its physiological function has not been determined. This gene is part of a cluster of cytochrome P450 genes on chromosome 19. Western blots using two different antibodies against two unique regions of this protein target confirm the same apparent molecular weight in our tests.This gene encodes a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes.
