  2. Microsomal epoxide hydrolase
  3. mEH
Gene Name EPHX1
Protein Type Unknown
Biological Properties
General Function Not Available
Specific Function Biotransformation enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of arene and aliphatic epoxides to less reactive and more water soluble dihydrodiols by the trans addition of water. May play a role in the metabolism of endogenous lipids such as epoxide-containing fatty acids. Metabolizes the abundant endocannabinoid 2-arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG) to free arachidonic acid (AA) and glycerol (By similarity).
Pathways
  • Bile secretion
  • Chemical carcinogenesis - DNA adducts
  • Chemical carcinogenesis - reactive oxygen species
  • Chemical carcinogenesis - receptor activation
  • Metabolism of xenobiotics by cytochrome P450
