Other Information

**Key characteristics:** - BLVRA is a protein of the cytochrome P450 family. - It is expressed in high levels in the liver and other tissues with a high metabolic demand for reduced forms of bilirubin. - It is a key regulator of bilirubin metabolism. **Pathways and functions:** - The primary pathway for bilirubin metabolism is the oxidation of bilirubin by cytochrome P450 enzymes. - BLVRA is a key enzyme in this pathway, reducing bilirubin to bilirubin-sulfoxide. - This reduced form of bilirubin can then be further metabolized by the bile acids. **Clinical significance:** - Mutations in the BLVRA gene have been linked to human diseases, including Gilbert's anemia. - In Gilbert's anemia, the lack of bilirubin reductase leads to the accumulation of bilirubin in the blood, causing jaundice. - BLVRA is a potential therapeutic target for the treatment of Gilbert's anemia. **Additional notes:** - BLVRA is a highly conserved protein with a wide expression in mammals. - It is a key regulator of the production of other bilirubin metabolites, such as bilirubin-diglucuronic acid and urobilin.
