CYP4F11

CYP4F11 (cytochrome P450, family 4, subfamily F, polypeptide 11) is a is_associated_with::protein that in humans is encoded by the CYP4F11 is_associated_with::gene.

This gene encodes a member of the is_associated_with::cytochrome P450 superfamily of is_associated_with::enzymes. The cytochrome P450 proteins are is_associated_with::monooxygenases which catalyze many reactions involved in drug metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol, steroids and other lipids. This gene is part of a cluster of cytochrome P450 genes on chromosome 19. Another member of this family, is_associated_with::CYP4F2, is approximately 16 kb away. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.
