basic FUNCTION
  • monooxygenase activity
  • involved in the transcriptional activation of the vitamin D receptor when either vitamin D2 or D3 was added to the medium
  • is the major but not exclusive 25-hydroxylase, but clearly a second enzyme is another contributor to this important step in vitamin D activation

    Susceptibility
  • to vitamin D response variation in postmenopausal women
  • type 1 diabetes
  • to vitamin D insufficiency, and multiple sclerosis
  • Variant & Polymorphism other
  • DNA methylation levels of CYP2R1 predict vitamin D response variation in postmenopausal women
  • association of CYP2R1 polymorphisms in patients with type 1 diabetes and with their circulating levels of 25(OH)D3 (PMI: 17607662)
  • rs117913124 associated with an increased risk of vitamin D insufficiency, and increased odds of multiple sclerosis (
