P450 11β-hydroxylase (CYP11B1)

Target
CYP11B1
Molecular classification
Enzyme, Cytochrome P450, Monooxygenase
01

Overview

P450 11β-hydroxylase (CYP11B1) is a mitochondrial enzyme responsible for the final step in cortisol synthesis, converting 11-deoxycortisol to cortisol. It plays a crucial role in glucocorticoid production and is a therapeutic target for conditions involving cortisol excess or deficiency. Mutations in CYP11B1 can lead to congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
