Background Descriptions	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. This protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum. In rodents, the homologous protein has been shown to metabolize certain carcinogens; however, the specific function of the human protein has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008].

Protein Information
Name	CYP2S1 {ECO:0000303\|PubMed:11181079, ECO:0000312\|HGNC:HGNC:15654}
Function	A cytochrome P450 monooxygenase involved in the metabolism of retinoids and eicosanoids (PubMed:12711469, PubMed:21068195). In epidermis, may contribute to the oxidative metabolism of all-trans- retinoic acid. For this activity, 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) (PubMed:12711469). Additionally, displays peroxidase and isomerase activities toward various oxygenated eicosanoids such as prostaglandin H2 (PGH2) and hydroperoxyeicosatetraenoates (HPETEs) (PubMed:21068195). Independently of cytochrome P450 reductase, NADPH, and O2, catalyzes the breakdown of PGH2 to hydroxyheptadecatrienoic acid (HHT) and malondialdehyde (MDA), which is known to act as a mediator of DNA damage (PubMed:21068195).
Cellular Location	Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Microsome membrane; Peripheral membrane protein
Tissue Location	Expressed at higher levels in extrahepatic tissues including trachea, lung, stomach, small intestine, colon, kidney, breast, placenta and spleen (PubMed:11181079, PubMed:12711469) Expressed in peripheral blood leukocytes (PubMed:11181079) Constitutively expressed in skin (at protein level) (PubMed:12711469)
