P450 superfamily: update on new sequences, gene mapping, accession numbers and nomenclature.
TLDR
This revision supersedes the four previous updates in which a nomenclature system, based on divergent evolution of the P450 superfamily has been described and is similar to that proposed in the previous updates.

Expression and enzymatic activity of recombinant cytochrome P450 17 alpha-hydroxylase in Escherichia coli.
TLDR
Surprisingly, it is found that E. coli contain an electron-transport system that can substitute for the mammalian microsomal NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase in supporting both the 17 alpha-hydroxylase and 17,20-lyase activities of P45017 alpha.

Functional Variant of CYP4A11 20-Hydroxyeicosatetraenoic Acid Synthase Is Associated With Essential Hypertension
TLDR
The association of the T8590C variant with hypertension supports its role as a polygenic determinant of blood pressure control in humans, and results obtained from the large population database suggest that the relevance of the variant may vary according to hypertension comorbidity.

Crystal structure of cytochrome P450 14α-sterol demethylase (CYP51) from Mycobacterium tuberculosis in complex with azole inhibitors
TLDR
Mapping mutations identified in Candida albicans azole-resistant isolates indicates that azole resistance in fungi develops in protein regions involved in orchestrating passage of CYP51 through different conformational stages along the catalytic cycle rather than in residues directly contacting fluconazole.

Alterations in the regulation of androgen-sensitive Cyp 4a monooxygenases cause hypertension
TLDR
It is concluded that the androgen-mediated regulation of Cyp 4a arachidonate monooxygenases is an important component of the renal mechanisms that control systemic blood pressures.

Regulation of the synthesis of steroidogenic enzymes in adrenal cortical cells by ACTH.
TLDR
The regulation of steroid hydroxylase gene expression by cAMP­ dependent mechanisms and, in particular, the mechanisms of ACTH regula­ tion of the synthesis of the steroidogenic enzymes present in the adrenal cortex are focused on.

17α-Hydroxylase/17,20-Lyase Deficiency: From Clinical Investigation to Molecular Definition*
TLDR
The most common form of CAH, 21-hydroxylase deficiency, accounts for 90–95% ofCAH and is related to the structure of the P450C21 (CYP21) genes of which there are two, closely linked, a functional gene and a pseudo-gene.

Sex-dependent expression of a transcription factor, Ad4BP, regulating steroidogenic P-450 genes in the gonads during prenatal and postnatal rat development.
TLDR
It is suggested that the Müllerian inhibitory substance gene may be a target of Ad4BP since this gene has a conserved Ad4-binding site within the promoter, which is recognized by Ad4 BP expressed in the fetal testes.

Activation of CYP11A and CYP11B gene promoters by the steroidogenic cell-specific transcription factor, Ad4BP.
TLDR
Only Ad1(CRE), a CRE homolog, showed forskolin-dependent transcriptional activity in adrenal tumor Y-1 cells, whereas the other elements were not able to stimulate transcription by themselves.
