ID   1.14.14.57
DE   taurochenodeoxycholate 6alpha-hydroxylase.
AN   CYP3A4.
AN   CYP4A21.
AN   taurochenodeoxycholate 6alpha-monooxygenase.
CA   (1) O2 + reduced [NADPH--hemoprotein reductase] + taurochenodeoxycholate
CA   = H(+) + H2O + oxidized [NADPH--hemoprotein reductase] + taurohyocholate.
CA   (2) lithocholate + O2 + reduced [NADPH--hemoprotein reductase] = H(+) +
CA   H2O + hyodeoxycholate + oxidized [NADPH--hemoprotein reductase].
CC   -!- Requires cytochrome b5 for maximal activity.
CC   -!- Acts on taurochenodeoxycholate, taurodeoxycholate and less readily on
CC       lithocholate and chenodeoxycholate.
CC   -!- In adult pig (Sus scrofa), hyocholic acid replaces cholic acid as a
CC       primary bile acid.
CC   -!- Formerly EC 1.14.13.97.
