ncbi summary :
This gene encodes a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily of enzymes. The cytochrome P450 proteins are monooxygenases which catalyze many reactions involved in drug metabolism and synthesis of cholesterol, steroids and other lipids. This protein localizes to the endoplasmic reticulum and catalyzes the last steps of estrogen biosynthesis, three successive hydroxylations of the A ring of androgens. Mutations in this gene can result in either increased or decreased aromatase activity; the associated phenotypes suggest that estrogen functions both as a sex steroid hormone and in growth or differentiation. The gene expresses two transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
uniprot summary :
Function: Catalyzes the formation of aromatic C18 estrogens from C19 androgens. Catalytic activity: RH + reduced flavoprotein + O2 = ROH + oxidized flavoprotein + H2O. Cofactor: Heme group. Subcellular location: Membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Tissue specificity: Brain, placenta and gonads. Ref.10 Ref.12 Ref.13 Ref.15. Involvement in disease: Aromatase excess syndrome (AEXS) [MIM:139300]: An autosomal dominant disorder characterized by increased extraglandular aromatization of steroids that presents with heterosexual precocity in males and isosexual precocity in females.Note: The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.Aromatase deficiency (AROD) [MIM:613546]: A rare disease in which fetal androgens are not converted into estrogens due to placental aromatase deficiency. Thus, pregnant women exhibit a hirsutism, which spontaneously resolves after post-partum. At birth, female babies present with pseudohermaphroditism due to virilization of extern genital organs. In adult females, manifestations include delay of puberty, breast hypoplasia and primary amenorrhoea with multicystic ovaries.Note: The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry. Ref.17 Ref.18 Ref.19. Sequence similarities: Belongs to the cytochrome P450 family.
