Impaired 17,20-Lyase Activity in Male Mice Lacking Cytochrome b(5) in Leydig Cells

Androgen and estrogen biosynthesis in mammals requires the 17,20-lyase activity of cytochrome P450 17A1 (steroid 17-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase). Maximal 17,20-lyase activity in vitro requires the presence of cytochrome b(5) (b5), and rare cases of b5 deficiency in human beings causes isolated 17,20-lya...
