IUBMB Comments A cytochrome P -450 (heme-thiolate) protein. Requires cytochrome b 5 for maximal activity. Acts on taurochenodeoxycholate, taurodeoxycholate and less readily on lithocholate and chenodeoxycholate. In adult pig (Sus scrofa ), hyocholic acid replaces cholic acid as a primary bile acid .
The enzyme appears in viruses and cellular organisms
Synonyms cyp4a21, taurochenodeoxycholic acid 6alpha-hydroxylase, more

taurochenodeoxycholate,[reduced NADPH-hemoprotein reductase]:oxygen oxidoreductase (6alpha-hydroxylating)
A cytochrome P-450 (heme-thiolate) protein. Requires cytochrome b5 for maximal activity. Acts on taurochenodeoxycholate, taurodeoxycholate and less readily on lithocholate and chenodeoxycholate. In adult pig (Sus scrofa), hyocholic acid replaces cholic acid as a primary bile acid [5].

physiological function
-
a strong correlation exists between 6alpha-hydroxylation of taurochenodeoxycholic acid, CYP3A levels and testosterone 6beta-hydroxylation. There is also a strong correlation between 6alpha-hydroxylation of lithocholic acid, CYP3A levels and testosterone 6beta-hydroxylation

medicine
-
vitamin D receptor deficiency in the intestine of mice exacerbates lithocholic acid-induced hepatotoxicity manifested by increased necrosis and inflammation, due in part to overaccumulation of hepatic bile acids including taurocholic acid and taurodeoxycholic acid. Intestinal expression of CYP3A4 in the Vitamin D receptor-deficient mouse line reduces lithocholic acid-induced hepatotoxicity through elevation of lithocholic acid metabolism and detoxification, and suppression of bile acid transporter expression in the small intestine
