Structural highlights
DiseaseCP17A_HUMAN Congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 17-alpha-hydroxylase deficiency;46,XY disorder of sex development due to isolated 17, 20 lyase deficiency. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. FunctionCP17A_HUMAN Conversion of pregnenolone and progesterone to their 17-alpha-hydroxylated products and subsequently to dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and androstenedione. Catalyzes both the 17-alpha-hydroxylation and the 17,20-lyase reaction. Involved in sexual development during fetal life and at puberty.[1] References
