Rickets also causes muscle weakness, skeletal deformities, dental problems, inhibition of growth, and muscle spasms.

| - | <scene name='48/483888/ | + | Cytochrome P450 is an <scene name='48/483888/Cytochrome_p450_dimer/1'>asymmetric dimer</scene>, which means the protein is made of two subunits that are structurally very similar to one another, but not identical. Each dimeric subunit contain 12 α-helices (labeled A-L) along with some β-sheets that are localized to one side of the molecule. Helices F and G from each of the units form the dimer interface of cytochrome P450, and are involved in the formation of the active site. This dimeric interface of the protein is stabilized by <scene name='48/483888/Cytochrome_p450_interface/1'>hydrogen bonding interactions</scene> between residues from the G helix of one the units with residues located on the the F helix of the second unit, and vice versa. Two molecules of 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin are also found near the dimer interface. The cyclodextrins are believed to help further stabilize the protein, and also shield the hydrophobic part of the F-G helix transition loop from the solvent by <scene name='48/483888/Cytochrome_p450_cyclodextrins/1'>encapsulating the Phe240 residue within its cavity</scene>.

Cytochrome P450 has specific vitamin D 25-hydroxylase activity, which does not function properly when a person has rickets. Rickets is caused by a lack of sufficient vitamin D in their system, which is often caused by a vitamin D-25 hydroxylation defect. Leu99Pro is an evolutionarily conserved mutation in the beta helix which contributes to the hydroxylation defect. Leu99 does not inhibit substrate binding; however, Leu99Pro disturbs hydrogen binding around the heme and interferes with the helix steric properties, causing protein instability. When Leu99 does not have the proline mutation, its carboxyl group forms hydrogen bonds with Arg445, which are both located around the central heme and allows for hydroxylation of vitamin D. | ||

Introduction
Rickets is a disease resulting from prolonged vitamin D deficiency. As vitamin D is vital for the absorption of phosphorus and calcium, a deficiency would cause weakening of bones. Rickets also causes muscle weakness, skeletal deformities, dental problems, inhibition of growth, and muscle spasms. In some cases, rickets can be inherited due to mutations in genes responsible for coding for human CYP2R1.
In the human body, CYP2R1, a member of the cytochrome P450 family, is responsible for the first steps of the conversion of vitamin D into a bioavailable form within the liver. CYP2R1 is also known as Vitamin D 25-hydroxylase as it hydroxylates vitamin D3 into calcidiol, the bioavailable form of the vitamin, which would then be converted to calcitriol via the enzyme 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 1-alpha-hydroxylase, as seen in figure 1.
