Subcellular location

Subcellular Location:
Mitochondrion matrix.

Function

Function:
Serves as the first electron transfer protein in all the mitochondrial P450 systems. Including cholesterol side chain cleavage in all steroidogenic tissues, steroid 11-beta hydroxylation in the adrenal cortex, 25-OH-vitamin D3-24 hydroxylation in the kidney, and sterol C-27 hydroxylation in the liver.
Pathway:
Steroid metabolism; cholesterol metabolism.
Catalytic Activity:
2 reduced adrenodoxin + NADP(+) = 2 oxidized adrenodoxin + NADPH.
