FunFam 32: Cytochrome P450 aromatase

There are 1 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

Aromatase. [EC: 1.14.14.14]
(1) Testosterone + 3 [reduced NADPH--hemoprotein reductase] + 3 O(2) = 17-beta-estradiol + formate + 4 H(2)O + 3 [oxidized NADPH--hemoprotein reductase]. (2) Androst-4-ene-3,17-dione + 3 [reduced NADPH--hemoprotein reductase] + 3 O(2) = estrone + formate + 4 H(2)O + 3 [oxidized NADPH--hemoprotein reductase].
  • The enzyme catalyzes three sequential hydroxylations of the androgens androst-4-ene-3,17-dione and testosterone, resulting in their aromatization and forming the estrogens estrone and 17-beta- estradiol, respectively.
