Cyp3a16 - cytochrome P450, family 3, subfamily a, polypeptide 16

Predicted to enable demethylase activity; retinoic acid 4-hydroxylase activity; and steroid hydroxylase activity. Predicted to be involved in oxidative demethylation and steroid metabolic process. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum and membrane. Is expressed in liver. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in B-lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma; acute lymphoblastic leukemia; chronic myeloid leukemia; and essential hypertension. Orthologous to several human genes including CYP3A5 (cytochrome P450 family 3 subfamily A member 5). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
