Gene Name CYP2B6
Uniprot ID CP2B6_HUMAN
KEGG Pathway hsa:1555
Protein Family Cytochrome P450 family
Protein Function
A cytochrome P450 monooxygenase involved in the metabolism of endocannabinoids and steroids (PubMed:21289075, PubMed:12865317). Mechanistically, uses molecular oxygen inserting one oxygen atom into a substrate, and reducing the second into a water molecule, with two electrons provided by NADPH via cytochrome P450 reductase (NADPH--hemoprotein reductase). Catalyzes the epoxidation of double bonds of arachidonoylethanolamide (anandamide) to 8,9-, 11,12-, and 14,15-epoxyeicosatrienoic acid ethanolamides (EpETrE-EAs), potentially modulating endocannabinoid system signaling (PubMed:21289075). Hydroxylates steroid hormones, including testosterone at C-16 and estrogens at C-2 (PubMed:21289075, PubMed:12865317). Plays a role in the oxidative metabolism of xenobiotics, including plant lipids and drugs (PubMed:11695850, PubMed:22909231). Acts as a 1,4-cineole 2-exo-monooxygenase (PubMed:11695850).

      Mechanism Description
  • Decreased metabolism of Propofol caused by Abametapir (topical) mediated inhibition of CYP450 enzyme

Recommended Action
      Management Use of CYP450 3A4, CYP450 2B6, and CYP450 1A2 substrates should generally be avoided within 2 weeks after topical application of abametapir lotion. If abametapir is used, monitor for increased toxicity of the CYP450 3A4, CYP450 2B6, and/or CYP450 1A2 substrate.
