Cyp11a1 - cytochrome P450, family 11, subfamily a, polypeptide 1 Gene
Also Known as Cyp11a; Cypxia1; P450scc; P450(scc)
Species: Rattus norvegicus
Summary
Enables Cholesterol binding activity and Cholesterol monooxygenase (side-chain-cleaving) activity. Involved in several processes, including nervous system development; response to vitamin; and steroid biosynthetic process. Located in mitochondrial crista and perikaryon. Biomarker of several diseases, including glucose metabolism disease (multiple); hypertension; nephrosis; sciatic neuropathy; and status epilepticus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in congenital adrenal hyperplasia and congenital adrenal insufficiency. Orthologous to human CYP11A1 (Cytochrome P450 family 11 subfamily A member 1).
