CYP4A10 is a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes, which are key players in the metabolism of various substances in the body. These enzymes are involved in the oxidation of organic substances and play a crucial role in the metabolism of drugs, steroids, and other xenobiotics (foreign chemical substances).Specifically, CYP4A10 is part of the CYP4A subfamily. This subfamily is known for its role in the metabolism of fatty acids, particularly in the hydroxylation of medium and long-chain fatty acids. This process is important for maintaining homeostasis of lipid metabolism in the body. The CYP4A enzymes, including CYP4A10, are primarily found in the liver, but they are also present in other tissues.
CYP4A10, like other cytochrome P450 enzymes, is a heme-thiolate protein. This means it contains a heme (iron-containing) group, which is essential for its enzymatic activity. The activity of CYP4A10, as with other P450 enzymes, involves the insertion of an oxygen atom from molecular oxygen into its substrate (the fatty acid, in this case).The expression and regulation of CYP4A10 can be influenced by various physiological factors, including hormonal levels, dietary components, and the presence of certain drugs or xenobiotics. Alterations in the expression or activity of CYP4A10 can have implications for lipid metabolism and may be relevant in the context of certain metabolic disorders or diseases.
