Biological function summary
ADX plays a significant role in enabling steroid biosynthesis and metabolism acting as an electron donor. ADX is an essential component of the mitochondrial cholesterol side-chain cleavage complex. This complex helps in converting cholesterol into pregnenolone initiating steroid hormone production. It is necessary for producing corticosteroids androgens and estrogens.
Pathways
ADX holds critical functions in the cholesterol and steroid biosynthesis pathways. ADX interacts with the cholesterol transport protein StAR and cytochrome P450scc both essential for initiating the conversion of cholesterol to pregnenolone. Additionally it supports the electron transfer processes necessary for the final conversion steps of various steroid hormones.

General info
Function
Essential for the synthesis of various steroid hormones (PubMed : 20547883, PubMed : 21636783). Participates in the reduction of mitochondrial cytochrome P450 for steroidogenesis (PubMed : 20547883, PubMed : 21636783). Transfers electrons from adrenodoxin reductase to CYP11A1, a cytochrome P450 that catalyzes cholesterol side-chain cleavage (PubMed : 20547883, PubMed : 21636783). Does not form a ternary complex with adrenodoxin reductase and CYP11A1 but shuttles between the two enzymes to transfer electrons (By similarity).
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the adrenodoxin/putidaredoxin family.
