Quantitation of CYP24A1 Enzymatic Activity With a Simple Two-Hybrid System

Abstract

The two-hybrid system in JEG-3 cells provides a simple, sensitive, quantitative assay of 24OHase activity. Heterozygous mutation of CYP24A1 may cause hypercalcemia in the setting of excessive vitamin D intake, but it is also possible that the patient had another, unidentified CYP24A1 mutation on the other allele.
