The cytochrome P450 proteins are monooxygenases which catalyze many reactions involved in drug metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol, steroids and other lipids. This enzyme is a microsomal vitamin D hydroxylase that converts vitamin D into the active ligand for the vitamin D receptor. A mutation in this gene has been associated with selective 25-hydroxyvitamin D deficiency. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],catalytic activity:5-beta-cholestane-3-alpha,7-alpha,12-alpha-triol + NADPH + O(2) = (25R)-5-beta-cholestane-3-alpha,7-alpha,12-alpha,26-tetraol + NADP(+) + H(2)O.,cofactor:Heme group.,disease:Defects in CYP2R1 are a cause of 25-hydroxyvitamin D(3) deficiency (25HOD3D)[MIM:600081]; also known as pseudovitamin D(3) deficiency rickets due to 25-hydroxylase deficiency. First described in patients who had rickets at a young age despite a history of adequate vitamin D intake. The patients sera had low calcium concentrations, low phosphate concentrations, elevated alkaline phosphatase activity, and low levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D.,function:Has a D-25-hydroxylase activity on both forms of vitamin D, vitamin D(2) and D(3).,similarity:Belongs to the cytochrome P450 family.,subunit:Homodimer.,
