Description
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on paired donors, with O2 as oxidant and incorporation or reduction of oxygen. The oxygen incorporated need not be derived from O2 with reduced iron-sulfur protein as one donor, and incorporation o one atom of oxygen into the other donor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is corticosterone,reduced-adrenal-ferredoxin:oxygen oxidoreductase (18-hydroxylating). Other names in common use include corticosterone 18-hydroxylase, and corticosterone methyl oxidase. This enzyme participates in c21-steroid hormone metabolism.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder

Synonyms
corticosterone 18-hydroxylase; corticosterone methyl oxidase
Reaction
corticosterone + 2 reduced adrenodoxin + O2 + 2 H+ = 18-hydroxycorticosterone + 2 oxidized adrenodoxin + H2O
