VD3 1A hydroxylase is located in the proximal tubule of the kidney and a variety of other tissues, including skin (keratinocytes), immune cells, and bone (osteoblasts). The enzyme catalyzes the hydroxylation of Calcifediol to calcitriol (the bioactive form of Vitamin D): Click on genes, proteins and metabolites below to link to respective articles.
