MeSH definition : A cytochrome P450 aryl hydrocarbon hydroxylase that has specificity for ESTROGENS
which it converts into 4-hydroxy estrogens. CYP1B1 has been shown to be physiologically
important for FETAL DEVELOPMENT with mutations in the CYP1B1 gene resulting in congenital
forms of GLAUCOMA and Peter's anomaly.;
