Cytochrome P450 Family 3 Subfamily A Member 7 (CYP3A7)

Target
CYP3A7
Molecular classification
Enzyme, Cytochrome P450, Monooxygenase
01

Overview

CYP3A7 is a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily, primarily expressed in the fetal and neonatal liver. It functions as a monooxygenase, catalyzing the metabolism of steroid hormones like DHEA-S and testosterone, as well as certain drugs and xenobiotics. While expression declines after birth, CYP3A7 plays a crucial role in fetal development and can influence drug metabolism in neonates. Genetic variations may impact chemotherapy response in cancer patients.
