General annotation (Comments)

Function

Converts 11-deoxycorticosterone into corticosterone, 18-hydroxycorticosterone, and aldosterone. Also can catalyze the conversion of 11-deoxycortisol to cortisol, 18-hydroxycortisol and cortisone.

Catalytic activity

A steroid + reduced adrenal ferredoxin + O2 = an 11-beta-hydroxysteroid + oxidized adrenal ferredoxin + H2O.

Corticosterone + reduced adrenal ferredoxin + O2 = 18-hydroxycorticosterone + oxidized adrenal ferredoxin + H2O.

Cofactor

Heme group By similarity.

Subcellular location

Mitochondrion membrane.

Tissue specificity

Adrenal cortex.

Induction

A 12-fold increase was seen in the presence of a low sodium-high potassium diet. Ref.4

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the cytochrome P450 family.
