Enzyme Information
| 1.14.15.29 |
Cholest-4-en-3-one 26-monooxygenase ((25S)-3-oxocholest-4-en-26-oate forming).
based on mapping to UniProt P9WPP1
Cholest-4-en-3-one + 6 reduced ferredoxin [iron-sulfur] cluster + 6 H(+) + 3 O(2) = (25S)-3-oxocholest-4-en-26-oate + 6 oxidized ferredoxin [iron- sulfur] cluster + 4 H(2)O.
-!- A cytochrome P450 (heme-thiolate) protein found in several bacterial pathogens. -!- The enzyme is involved in degradation of the host's cholesterol. -!- It catalyzes the hydroxylation of the C-26 carbon, followed by oxidation of the alcohol to the carboxylic acid via the aldehyde intermediate, initiating the degradation of the alkyl side-chain of cholesterol. -!- The products are exclusively in the (25S) conformation. -!- The enzyme also accepts cholesterol as a substrate. -!- Cf. EC 1.14.15.28. -!- Formerly EC 1.14.13.141.
