Cytochrome P450 family 1 subfamily B member 1 (CYP1B1) is an enzyme, Which belongs to the cytochrome P450 superfamily. CYP1B1 can catalyze many reactions involved in drug metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol, steroids, and other lipids. Besides, Heat Shock Protein family B (small) member 2 (HSPb2) has been identified as an interactor of CYP1B1, thus a binding ELISA assay was conducted to detect the interaction of recombinant human CYP1B1 and recombinant human HSPb2, CYP1B1 were diluted serially in PBS, with 0.01% BSA (pH 7.4). Duplicate samples of 100 microl were then transferred to HSPb2-coated microtiter wells and incubated for 2h at 37C. Wells were washed with PBST and incubated for 1h with anti-CYP1B1 pAb, then aspirated and washed 3 times. After incubation with HRP labelled secondary antibody, wells were aspirated and washed 3 times. With the addition of substrate solution, wells were incubated 15-25 minutes at 37C. Finally, add 50 microl stop solution to the wells and read at 450nm immediately. The binding activity of CYP1B1 and HSPb2 was in a dose dependent manner.

Cytochrome P450 1B1

This gene encodes a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes. The cytochrome P450 proteins are monooxygenases which catalyze many reactions involved in drug metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol, steroids and other lipids. The enzyme encoded by this gene localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and metabolizes procarcinogens such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and 17beta-estradiol. Mutations in this gene have been associated with primary congenital glaucoma; therefore it is thought that the enzyme also metabolizes a signaling molecule involved in eye development, possibly a steroid.
