The protein has a mass of approximately 57 kDa. CYP2U1 is expressed mainly in brain thymus and liver tissues where its enzymatic activity modulates various metabolic processes.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nCYP2U1 processes long-chain fatty acids into hydroxy-fatty acids which are important for various cellular functions. It does not function as part of a larger enzyme complex but operates independently to influence lipid metabolism and energy balance in cells. This activity of CYP2U1 impacts physiological processes such as inflammation and neuronal health.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nCYP2U1 participates in the arachidonic acid and linoleic acid metabolism pathways. These pathways are significant because they link to the biosynthesis of important signaling molecules that mediate inflammatory responses and cell communication. CYP2U1 interacts with related proteins like CYP2C19 and CYP2J2 which also contribute to fatty acid metabolism.\u003cbr\u003e\nMutations or dysfunctions in CYP2U1 have connections with hereditary spastic paraplegia (HSP) and a specific type of cerebellar ataxia. HSP mutations in CYP2U1 affect neuronal pathways critical for motor function. In cerebellar ataxia CYP2U1 dysfunction affects proteins like spastin which result in impaired motor coordination and balance. Understanding CYP2U1's role in these disorders offers insights into potential therapeutic strategies.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46848602341545,"sku":"ab252975","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab252975","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
