Cyp3a23/3a1 Gene Summary [Rat]

Enables demethylase activity and testosterone 6-beta-hydroxylase activity. Involved in oxidative demethylation and xenobiotic metabolic process. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Used to study alcohol dependence and anxiety disorder. Biomarker of cholestasis and end stage renal disease. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in B-lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma; acute lymphoblastic leukemia; chronic myeloid leukemia; essential hypertension; and familial Mediterranean fever. Orthologous to several human genes including CYP3A5 (cytochrome P450 family 3 subfamily A member 5). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Cyp3a23/3a1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
