Incubation of aldosterone with confluent layers of A6 (toad kidney) cells leads to its hydroxylation at the 6 beta-position. 6 beta-Hydroxyaldosterone is the major metabolite when the incubation is carried out at pH 6.8, whereas the product comprises 6 beta-hydroxy-17-isoaldosterone accompanied by some 6 beta-hydroxyapoaldosterone at pH 7.4. All products were identified by high-field 1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Control experiments indicated that the side-chain isomerization to form the 17-iso and apo derivatives occurs after the cytochrome P 450-dependent synthesis of 6 beta-hydroxyaldosterone.

D003577 Cytochrome P-450 Enzyme System A superfamily of hundreds of closely related HEMEPROTEINS found throughout the phylogenetic spectrum, from animals, plants, fungi, to bacteria. They include numerous complex monooxygenases (MIXED FUNCTION OXYGENASES). In animals, these P-450 enzymes serve two major functions: (1) biosynthesis of steroids, fatty acids, and bile acids; (2) metabolism of endogenous and a wide variety of exogenous substrates, such as toxins and drugs (BIOTRANSFORMATION). They are classified, according to their sequence similarities rather than functions, into CYP gene families (>40% homology) and subfamilies (>59% homology). For example, enzymes from the CYP1, CYP2, and CYP3 gene families are responsible for most drug metabolism.
