Protein Length | Full Length |
Mol. Weight | 73.3kDa |
Research Area | Metabolism |
Form | Liquid or Lyophilized powder |
Buffer | Liquid form: default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. Lyophilized powder form: the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0. |
Reconstitution | Briefly centrifuged the vial prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. It is recommended to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20°C/-80°C. The default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. |
Storage | 1. Store at -20°C/-80°C upon receipt, aliquoting is necessary for mutiple use. 2. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. 3. Store working aliquots at 4°C for up to one week. 4. In general, protein in liquid form is stable for up to 6 months at -20°C/-80°C. Protein in lyophilized powder form is stable for up to 12 months at -20°C/-80°C. |
Notes | Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4°C for up to one week. |
Target Details
Target Function | A cytochrome P450 monooxygenase involved in corticoid and androgen biosynthesis. Catalyzes 17-alpha hydroxylation of C21 steroids, which is common for both pathways. A second oxidative step, required only for androgen synthesis, involves an acyl-carbon cleavage. The 17-alpha hydroxy intermediates, as part of adrenal glucocorticoids biosynthesis pathway, are precursors of cortisol. Hydroxylates steroid hormones, pregnenolone and progesterone to form 17-alpha hydroxy metabolites, followed by the cleavage of the C17-C20 bond to form C19 steroids, dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) and androstenedione. Has 16-alpha hydroxylase activity. Catalyzes 16-alpha hydroxylation of 17-alpha hydroxy pregnenolone, followed by the cleavage of the C17-C20 bond to form 16-alpha-hydroxy DHEA. Also 16-alpha hydroxylates androgens, relevant for estriol synthesis. Mechanistically, uses molecular oxygen inserting one oxygen atom into a substrate, and reducing the second into a water molecule, with two electrons provided by NADPH via cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR; NADPH-ferrihemoprotein reductase). |

Gene Functions References
- Data suggest that CYP17A1 and aromatase/Cyp19a1 are induced in hippocampus by the environmental pollutant/retinoid X receptor agonist tributyltin; thus, tributyltin appears to stimulate estradiol biosynthesis. PMID: 24679120
- Data from a rat model of polycystic ovary syndrome suggest that hyperandrogenism develops and this may partially up-regulate expression of steroidogenic enzymes (CYP17 and P450scc [cholesterol side-chain cleavage enzyme]) in ovarian tissue. PMID: 22798247
- these data demonstrate the occurrence of P450C(17) in the deep cerebellar nuclei of the rat PMID: 22800812
- Data demonstrate, for the first time, the presence and anatomical distribution of P450C(17) in the vestibular nuclei. PMID: 21388459
- Dibromoacetic acid can directly target rat Leydig cells and downregulate testicular CYP17 expression with a resulting decreased testicular testosterone production. PMID: 21046364
- immunolocalization of 3beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogense, cytochrome P450c17 and androgen receptor were investigated in rat cumuli oophori of late pre-ovulatory follicles and in post-ovulatory COCs bearing fertilized oocytes PMID: 19775733
- Results suggest that PCB126 may affect testicular steroidogenesis by downregulating P450(17alpha), P450(scc) and have inhibitory effect on the testicular functions. PMID: 20356859
