Corticosteroid Biosynthesis Revisited: No Direct Hydroxylation of Pregnenolone by Steroid 21-Hydroxylase. [PDF]
Cytochrome P450s (CYPs) are an essential family of enzymes in the human body. They play a crucial role in metabolism, especially in human steroid biosynthesis. Reactions catalyzed by these enzymes are highly stereo- and regio-specific.

Molecular Diagnosis of Steroid 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency: A Practical Approach. [PDF]
Adrenal insufficiency in paediatric patients is mostly due to congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH), a severe monogenic disease caused by steroid 21-hydroxylase deficiency (21-OHD, encoded by the CYP21A2 gene) in 95% of cases.
