NCPR Polyclonal Antibody

catalytic activity:NADPH + n oxidized hemoprotein = NADP(+) + n reduced hemoprotein.,cofactor:FAD.,cofactor:FMN.,disease:Defects in POR are a cause of isolated disordered steroidogenesis (IDS) [MIM:201750].,disease:Defects in POR are the cause of adrenal hyperplasia variant type (AHV) [MIM:201750]; also known as Antley-Bixler syndrome-like phenotype with disordered steroidogenesis. AHV is a rare variant of congenital adrenal hyperplasia. It is an autosomal recessive disorder with apparent combined P450C17 and P450C21 deficiency. Affected girls are born with ambiguous genitalia, but their circulating androgens are low and virilization does not progress. Conversely, affected boys are sometimes born undermasculinized. Boys and girls can also present with bone malformations, in some cases resembling the pattern seen in patients with Antley-Bixler syndrome.,function:This enzyme is required for electron transfer from NADP to cytochrome P450 in microsomes. It can also provide electron transfer to heme oxygenase and cytochrome B5.,similarity:Contains 1 FAD-binding FR-type domain.,similarity:Contains 1 flavodoxin-like domain.,similarity:In the C-terminal section; belongs to the flavoprotein pyridine nucleotide cytochrome reductase family.,subcellular location:Anchored to the ER membrane by its N-terminal hydrophobic region.,
