Protein attributes

Sequence length	503 AA.
Sequence status	Complete.
Sequence processing	The displayed sequence is not processed.
Protein existence	Evidence at transcript level.

General annotation (Comments)

Function	Catalyzes the formation of aromatic C18 estrogens from C19 androgens. Final rate-limiting step.
Catalytic activity	RH + reduced flavoprotein + O2 = ROH + oxidized flavoprotein + H2O.
Cofactor	Heme group By similarity.
Subcellular location	Endoplasmic reticulum membrane; Peripheral membrane protein By similarity.
Tissue specificity	Expressed in placenta. Highly expressed in follicles (0 hour:hCG), followed by a drop (12-24 hour:hCG) and by an increase (30-39 hour:hCG). Highly expressed in corpora lutea. Also expressed in granulosa cell layer. Not expressed in theca interna.
Domain	Contains a I helix thought to serve as the substrate-binding pocket.
Sequence similarities	Belongs to the cytochrome P450 family.
Caution	Clone A1 form may be a splice variant or an artifact.
