The steroid-17 α -hydroxylase (also: cytochrome P450 17, CYP17 ) is the enzyme that in eukaryotes the hydroxylation and subsequent deacetylation of steroids at the 17-position catalyzed . This reaction is not only necessary for the biosynthesis of the hormones dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and androstenedione (ASD), but also for the breakdown of steroids ( biotransformation ). The enzyme is likely a membrane protein. Mutations in CYP17A1 - gene are the cause of congenital adrenal hyperplasia type 5 .
Catalyzed reactions
The main catalyzed reaction is hydroxylation:
+ A H 2 + O 2 + A + H 2 O
As an example, the 17-hydroxylation of progesterone is 17 α shown hydroxyprogesterone. Pregnenolone is also hydroxylated in this way. Under certain conditions such as phosphorylation of the enzyme and the presence of enough electrons, acetic acid can be split off. This reaction is 17 α -hydroxyprogesterone aldolase (abbreviated 17,20-lyase ) and takes place at the same center as the hydroxylation. As with hydroxylation, the pregnenolone derivative can also serve as a substrate:
Clinical significance
The inhibitor of the steroid 17 α -hydroxylase abiraterone has been used in the treatment of castration-resistant prostate cancer since 2011 .
