Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * BLVRB is a protein of the cytochrome P450 family. * It is expressed in high levels in immune cells, including monocytes, macrophages, and dendritic cells. * It is also expressed in epithelial cells of the gut and esophagus. * BLVRB is a NADPH-dependent enzyme. **Pathways and functions:** * BLVRB catalyzes the reduction of bilirubin to its inactive form, bilirubin-glucuronide. * This process is involved in the clearance of bilirubin from the body. * BLVRB is also involved in the regulation of inflammation and cell survival. * In inflammation, BLVRB is activated and reduces bilirubin to its inactive form, which inhibits the activation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB), a key transcription factor that is involved in inflammation. * In cell survival, BLVRB is involved in the regulation of apoptosis (programmed cell death). * BLVRB also plays a role in the metabolism of porphyrins, a group of pigments that are produced by the breakdown of hemoglobin. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in BLVRB have been linked to several diseases, including liver disease, cancer, and inflammation. * In liver disease, mutations in BLVRB can lead to the accumulation of bilirubin in the blood, which can cause a condition called bilirubin jaundice. * In cancer, mutations in BLVRB can lead to the development of tumors that are resistant to chemotherapy. * BLVRB is a potential target for the treatment of liver disease and cancer.
