Other Information

**Key Characteristics** EPHX1 is a member of the epoxide hydrolase family, characterized by its ability to catalyze the hydrolysis of epoxides to diols. This reaction is essential for the degradation of various xenobiotics, including pesticides, industrial chemicals, and pharmaceuticals. EPHX1 is primarily expressed in cells involved in detoxification, such as the liver, kidneys, and adrenal gland, where it plays a crucial role in the metabolism of endogenous and exogenous compounds. **Pathways and Functions** EPHX1 is involved in several metabolic pathways, including: 1. **Arachidonic acid metabolic process**: EPHX1 is required for the degradation of arachidonic acid, a polyunsaturated fatty acid involved in inflammation and immune responses. 2. **Aromatic compound catabolic process**: EPHX1 is responsible for the metabolism of aromatic compounds, including pesticides and industrial chemicals. 3. **Biological oxidations**: EPHX1 participates in the oxidation of various substrates, including steroids and fatty acids. 4. **Cis-stilbene-oxide hydrolase activity**: EPHX1 is involved in the degradation of cis-stilbene-oxide, a compound found in certain pesticides. EPHX1 functions as a cytochrome P450 reductase, working in conjunction with other enzymes to facilitate the metabolism of xenobiotics. Its activity is essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis and preventing oxidative damage. **Clinical Significance** Dysregulation of EPHX1 has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Cancer**: EPHX1 has been shown to be involved in the metabolism of carcinogenic compounds, and its polymorphisms have been associated with increased cancer risk. 2. **Neurological disorders**: EPHX1 is involved in the metabolism of neuroactive compounds, and its dysregulation has been linked to neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease. 3. **Environmental toxicology**: EPHX1 is essential for the detoxification of environmental pollutants, and its dysregulation can lead to increased susceptibility to toxic substances. In conclusion, EPHX1 is a critical enzyme involved in the metabolism of xenobiotics and the maintenance of cellular homeostasis. Its dysregulation has significant clinical implications, and further research is needed to fully understand its role in human health and disease.
