Function
function
A cytochrome P450 monooxygenase involved in the biosynthesis of adrenal corticoids (By similarity).
Catalyzes a variety of reactions that are essential for many species, including detoxification, defense, and the formation of endogenous chemicals like steroid hormones (By similarity).
Steroid 11beta, 18- and 19-hydroxylase with preferred regioselectivity at 11beta, then 18, and lastly 19. Catalyzes the hydroxylation of 11-deoxycortisol and 11-deoxycorticosterone (21-hydroxyprogesterone) at 11beta position, yielding cortisol or corticosterone, respectively, but cannot produce aldosterone (By similarity).
Mechanistically, uses molecular oxygen inserting one oxygen atom into a substrate for hydroxylation and reducing the second into a water molecule. Two electrons are provided by NADPH via a two-protein mitochondrial transfer system comprising flavoprotein FDXR (adrenodoxin/ferredoxin reductase) and nonheme iron-sulfur protein FDX1 or FDX2 (adrenodoxin/ferredoxin). Due to its lack of 18-oxidation activity, it is incapable of generating aldosterone. Could also be involved in the androgen metabolic pathway (By similarity).
