Function
Serves as the first electron transfer protein in all the mitochondrial P450 systems including cholesterol side chain cleavage in all steroidogenic tissues, steroid 11-beta hydroxylation in the adrenal cortex, 25-OH-vitamin D3-24 hydroxylation in the kidney, and sterol C-27 hydroxylation in the liver. Also acts as a ferredoxin–NADP(+) reductase essential for coenzyme Q biosynthesis: together with FDX2, transfers the electrons required for the hydroxylation reaction performed by COQ6.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Mitochondrion inner membrane (Peripheral membrane protein)
Tissue Specificity: Detected in adrenal cortex and corpus luteum (at protein level)
Pathway: Steroid metabolism; cholesterol metabolism
