  • cytochrome P450, subfamily 46 (cholesterol 24-hydroxylase)
Background InformationIn enzymology, a cholesterol 24-hydroxylase (EC 1.14.13.98) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction:
cholesterol + NADPH + H+ + O2 --> (24S)-24-hydroxycholesterol + NADP+ + H2O. Cholesterol 24-hydroxylase, a cytochrome P450 (CYP46A1), is expressed at 100-fold higher levels in the brain than in the liver. This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on paired donors, with O2 as oxidant and incorporation or reduction of oxygen. Studies indicate that cholesterol 24-hydroxylase constitutes a major tissue-specific pathway for cholesterol turnover in the brain (Lund, 2003).

Entrez Gene Number
Entrez Gene SummaryThis 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 endoplasmic reticulum protein is expressed in the brain, where it converts cholesterol to 24S-hydroxycholesterol. While cholesterol cannot pass the blood-brain barrier, 24S-hydroxycholesterol can be secreted in the brain into the circulation to be returned to the liver for catabolism. [provided by RefSeq].

Purification MethodProtein G Purified
UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: Involved in the turnover of cholesterol. It converts cholesterol into 24S-hydroxycholesterol and, to a lesser extent, 25-hydroxycholesterol.

CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Cholesterol + NADPH + O2 = (24S)-24-hydroxycholesterol + NADP+ + H2O.

COFACTOR: Heme group By similarity.

SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Single-pass membrane protein. Microsome membrane; Single-pass membrane protein.

TISSUE SPECIFICTY: Expressed in brain. The mRNA was broadly distributed with higher levels in gray matter zones and lower levels in regions rich in white matter. Not detected in fetal sample but its expression increases linearly with age.

SEQUENCE SIMILARITIES: Belongs to the cytochrome P450 family.
