Also known as cytochrome P450 family 27 subfamily C member 1

CYP27C1 (cytochrome P450, family 27, subfamily C, polypeptide 1) or cytochrome P450 27C1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CYP27C1 gene. The Enzyme Commission number (EC) for this protein is EC 1.14.19.53. The full accepted name is all-trans-retinol 3,4-desaturase and the EC number 1 classifies CYP27C1 as a oxidoreductase that acts on paired donor by reducing oxygen. It is also identifiable by the UniProt code Q4G0S4.
