synthesis
because of its capacity to hydroxylate steroids, CYP106A2 is an interesting candidate for industrial production of steroids or their intermediates. CYP106A2 is known as a 15beta-hydroxylase, but also shows minor 11alpha-hydroxylase activity for progesterone. 11alpha-Hydroxyprogesterone is an important pharmaceutical compound with anti-androgenic and blood-pressure-regulating activity
