Corticosterone is an oxidoreductase which uses molecular oxygen to insert a hydroxy group at position 18 of the steroid. It requires adrenal ferredoxin to transfer electrons to the cytochrome P450 active site.[1][2] The systematic name of this enzyme class is corticosterone,reduced-adrenal-ferredoxin:oxygen oxidoreductase (18-hydroxylating). Other names in common use include corticosterone 18-hydroxylase, and corticosterone methyl oxidase.[3] This enzyme is part of the pathway which converts corticosterone to aldosterone.[4]
