CYP-31A2

CELE_H02I12.8, H02I12.8
cyp-31A2 encodes a class 4 cytochrome P450 predicted to hydroxylate polyunsaturated fats (PUFAs); CYP-31A2 is required for sperm to normally migrate towards a PUFA-based signal exuded by oocytes; cyp-31A2(RNAi) hermaphrodites are infertile, both through aberrant loss of their own sperm and through failure of males to effectively inseminate them; in mammalian eicosanoid signalling, class 4 cytochrome P450 is required for the omega hydroxylation of PUFAs, prostaglandins, and leukotrienes.
