    Abstract:
    The possibility of functioning of microsomal steroid hydroxylases in the adrenal cortex in the presence of the electron-transporting proteins in mitochondrial monooxygenase systems has been studied. It was found that adrenodoxin reductase stimulates both the 21- and 17 alpha-steroid hydroxylation activities in microsomes of the adrenal cortex with the same efficiency as does NADPH-dependent cytochrome P-450 reductase. Using cytochrome b5 and its specific antibody, an attempt has been made to investigate possible mechanisms of the stimulating effect of adrenodoxin reductase.
