It exists as two main isoforms BVR-A and BVR-B with molecular masses approximately of 33 kDa. BVR is widely expressed in various tissues with higher levels found in liver kidney and spleen. As an enzyme its main function centers around the redox cycle between biliverdin and bilirubin providing an antioxidant defense mechanism.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nBVR influences cell signaling and growth processes acting as a multifunctional enzyme beyond its primary reductive activity. It participates in the MAPK and PI3K\/Akt signaling pathways acting both as a kinase and phosphatase which affects transcription factor regulation. BVR is also involved in heme metabolism working in conjunction with heme oxygenase to recycle heme a vital cellular molecule.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nBVR significantly contributes to the antioxidative and anti-inflammatory pathways. It operates within the heme catabolic pathway and the MAPK signaling cascade linking to proteins like heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and the transcription factor Nrf2. These pathways support cell response to oxidative stress and regulate gene expression in response to environmental stressors.\u003cbr\u003e\nBVR is associated with conditions such as jaundice and chronic inflammation-oriented diseases. Its interaction with proteins like heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) elevates its importance in managing oxidative stress-related disorders. Disruption in BVR function or expression can influence bilirubin metabolism potentially leading to hyperbilirubinemia and contributing to inflammatory disease development through altered cell signaling.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46853950603433,"sku":"ab192925","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab192925","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
