Background Information
The human cytochrome P450c17 enzyme is encoded by the CYP17A1 gene. It is the qualitative regulator of steroidogenesis in the human adrenals.In its absence, aldosterone is produced in the human adrenal zona glomerulosa .The CYP17A1 gene is expressed in the adrenal cortex and the gonads but not in the placenta (PMID;19403566). Although CYP17A1 has been shown to be a 50-kDa protein, the presence of a lower molecular mass(30 kDa) immunoreactive form in rat Leydig cells was previously shown and it is either a degradation product or a truncated form of the 50 kDa enzyme(PMID:15761033). Defects in CYP17A1 are the cause of adrenal hyperplasia type 5 (AH5) and CYP17A1 is an important target for inhibition in the treatment of prostate cancer (PMID 27505042, PMID 27505042).
