Comment
Requires NADPH and EC
1.6.2.4 , NADPH---hemoprotein reductase. A microsomal hemeprotein that catalyses two independent reactions at the same active site - the 17alpha-hydroxylation of pregnenolone and progesterone, which is part of glucocorticoid hormones biosynthesis, and the conversion of the 17alpha-hydroxylated products via a 17,20-lyase reaction to form androstenedione and dehydroepiandrosterone, leading to sex hormone biosynthesis (EC
1.14.14.32 , 17alpha-hydroxyprogesterone deacetylase). The ratio of the 17alpha-hydroxylase and 17,20-lyase activities is an important factor in determining the directions of steroid hormone biosynthesis towards biosynthesis of glucocorticoid or sex hormones.
History
EC 1.14.14.19 created 1961 as EC 1.99.1.9, transferred 1965 to EC 1.14.1.7, transferred 1972 to EC 1.14.99.9, modified 2013, transferred 2015 to EC 1.14.14.19
