Steroid 11β-hydroxylase, also known as steroid 11β-monooxygenase, is a steroid hydroxylase found in the zona glomerulosa and zona fasciculata of the adrenal cortex. Named officially the cytochrome P450 11B1, mitochondrial, it is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CYP11B1 gene.[5][6] The enzyme is involved in the biosynthesis of adrenal corticosteroids[7] by catalyzing the addition of hydroxyl groups during oxidation reactions.
Not to be confused with 11β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase.
