CYP1A1
Cytochrome P450, family 1, subfamily A, polypeptide 1 is a protein[5] that in humans is encoded by the CYP1A1 gene.[6] The protein is a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes.[7]
Function
Metabolism of xenobiotics and drugs
CYP1A1 is involved in phase I
CYP1A1 is also known as AHH (aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase). It is involved in the metabolic activation of aromatic hydrocarbons (
However, an in vivo experiment with gene-deficient mice has found that the hydroxylation of benzo[a]pyrene by CYP1A1 can have an overall protective effect on the DNA, rather than contributing to potentially carcinogenic DNA modifications. This effect is likely due to the fact that CYP1A1 is highly active in the intestinal mucosa, and thus inhibits infiltration of ingested benzo[a]pyrene carcinogen into the systemic circulation.[10]
CYP1A1 metabolism of various foreign agents to carcinogens has been implicated in the formation of various types of human cancer.[11][12]

Regulation
The expression of the CYP1A1 gene, along with that of CYP1A2/1B1 genes, is regulated by a heterodimeric transcription factor that consist of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor, a ligand activated transcription factor, and the aryl hydrocarbon receptor nuclear translocator.[20] In the intestine, but not the liver, CYP1A1 expression moreover depends on TOLL-like receptor 2 (
Polymorphisms
Several polymorphisms have been identified in CYP1A1, some of which lead to more highly inducible AHH activity. CYP1A1 polymorphisms include:[23][24][25][26]
- M1, T→C substitution at nucleotide 3801 in the 3'-non-coding region
- M2, codon462
- M3, T→C substitution at nucleotide 3205 in the 3'-non-coding region
- M4, C→A substitution at nucleotide 2453 leading to an amino acid change of threonine to asparagine at codon 461
The highly inducible forms of CYP1A1 are associated with an increased risk of lung cancer in smokers. (Reference = Kellerman et al., New Eng J Med 1973:289;934-937) Light smokers with the susceptible genotype CYP1A1 have a sevenfold higher risk of developing lung cancer compared to light smokers with the normal genotype.
