Function | A cytochrome P450 monooxygenase involved in the metabolism of endogenous polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). Mechanistically, uses molecular oxygen inserting one oxygen atom into a substrate, and reducing the second into a water molecule, with two electrons provided by NADPH via cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR; NADPH-ferrihemoprotein reductase). Catalyzes the hydroxylation of carbon hydrogen bonds, with preference for omega-2 position. Metabolizes (5Z,8Z,11Z,14Z)- eicosatetraenoic acid (arachidonate) toward 18-hydroxy arachidonate (PubMed:11162607). Catalyzes the epoxidation of double bonds of PUFAs such as docosapentaenoic and docosahexaenoic acids (PubMed:16112640). Has low omega-hydroxylase activity toward leukotriene B4 and arachidonate (PubMed:11162645). Involved in the metabolism of xenobiotics. Catalyzes the hydroxylation of the antihistamine drug ebastine (PubMed:11162645). |
Cellular Location | Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9HBI6}. Microsome membrane {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:Q9HBI6} |

Background
CYP4F12 is a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes. The cytochrome P450 proteins are monooxygenases which catalyze many reactions involved in drug metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol, steroids and other lipids. This protein likely localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum.
