Cyp2w1 - cytochrome P450, family 2, subfamily w, polypeptide 1 Gene

Predicted to enable heme binding activity; monooxygenase activity; and retinoid binding activity. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including aflatoxin metabolic process; phospholipid metabolic process; and retinoic acid catabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within lipid metabolic process. Predicted to be located in cell surface and endoplasmic reticulum lumen. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm and intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. Is expressed in colon; large intestine; and small intestine. Orthologous to human CYP2W1 (Cytochrome P450 family 2 subfamily W member 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
