Progesterone 17α-hydroxylation activities of P450 17A Arg/Cys mutant proteins

All rates were measured in the presence of an equimolar concentration of b5 relative to P450 (human b5 was used with human P450 17A1, and zebrafish b5 was used with zebrafish P450s), with a 2-fold molar excess of NADPH-P450 reductase and equimolar concentration of b5 when indicated.
