Background Information
CYP11B2 (Cytochrome P450 11B2), also known as aldosterone synthase, is a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes. CYP11B2 can only catalyze 11-deoxycorticosterone oxidation to produce corticosterone and further hydroxylation to ALD. CYP11B2 is an enzyme required for cortisol biosynthesis and is specifically expressed in aldosterone-producing tissue of the adrenal cortex and is overexpressed in aldosterone-producing adenomas (APA).
