The structure and characterization of human cytochrome P450 8B1 supports future drug design for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and diabetes

Human cytochrome P450 8B1 (CYP8B1) is involved in conversion of cholesterol to bile acids. It hydroxylates the steroid ring at C12 to ultimately produce the bile acid cholic acid. Studies implicated this enzyme as a good drug target for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and type 2 diabetes, but there...
