Structure of Recombinant Human Cytochrome P450 Aromatase
Template:ABSTRACT PUBMED 23899247
Disease
[CP19A_HUMAN] Defects in CYP19A1 are a cause of aromatase excess syndrome (AEXS) [MIM:139300]; also known as familial gynecomastia. AEXS is characterized by an estrogen excess due to an increased aromatase activity. Defects in CYP19A1 are the cause of aromatase deficiency (AROD) [MIM:613546]. AROD is 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.[1] [2] [3]
Function
[CP19A_HUMAN] Catalyzes the formation of aromatic C18 estrogens from C19 androgens.
