An alternative pathway of vitamin D2 metabolism: Cytochrome P450scc (CYP11A1)‐mediated conversion to 20‐hydroxyvitamin D2 and 17,20‐dihydroxyvitamin D2
Open accessAbstract
We report an alternative, hydroxylating pathway for the metabolism of vitamin D 2 in a cytochrome P450 side chain cleavage (P450scc; CYP11A1) reconstituted system. NMR analyses identified solely 20‐hydroxyvitamin D 2 and 17,20‐dihydroxyvitamin D 2 derivatives. 20‐Hydroxyvitamin D 2 was produced at a rate of 0.34 mol·min−1·mol−1 P450scc, and 17,20‐dihydroxyvitamin D 2 was produced at a rate of 0.13 mol·min−1·mol−1. In adrenal mitochondria, vitamin D 2 was metabolized to six monohydroxy products. Nevertheless, aminoglutethimide (a P450scc inhibitor) inhibited this adrenal metabolite formation. Initial testing of metabolites for biological activity showed that, similar to vitamin D 2, 20‐hydroxyvitamin D 2 and 17,20‐dihydroxyvitamin D 2 inhibited DNA synthesis in human epidermal HaCaT keratinocytes, although to a greater degree. 17,20‐Dihydroxyvitamin D 2 stimulated transcriptional activity of the involucrin promoter, again to a significantly greater extent than vitamin D 2, while the effect of 20‐hydroxyvitamin D 2 was statistically insignificant. Thus, P450scc can metabolize vitamin D 2 to generate novel products, with intrinsic biological activity (at least in keratinocytes).

Purified CYP11A1 hydroxylates the vitamin D2 side chain without cleavage, with the preferred initial site at C20.
“purified CYP11A1 can also hydroxylate the side chain of vitamin D2 without its cleavage, with the preferred site for the initial hydroxylation being at C20”
From The role of CYP11A1 in the production of vitamin D metabolites and their role in the regulation of epidermal functions (2014) · cites this paper as [58]
The major products of vitamin D2 metabolism by CYP11A1 are 20(OH)D2 and 17,20(OH)2D2, with lesser production of 17,20,24(OH)3D2 and an unidentified dihydroxyvitamin D2 metabolite.
“The major products were identified as 20(OH)D2 and 17,20(OH)2D2, with lesser production of 17,20,24(OH)3D2 and another unidentified dihydroxyvitamin D2 metabolite.”

Catalytic activity of CYP11A1 on non-traditional substrates such as vitamin D and ergosterol does not result in side chain cleavage, but involves sequential hydroxylations of the side chain including at C17.
“Importantly, catalytic activity on non-traditional substrates such as vitamin D and ergosterol does not result in side chain cleavage, but involves sequential hydroxylations of the side chain including at C17 [[10,24–30], and see below].”
From Novel activities of CYP11A1 and their potential physiological significance (2015) · cites this paper as [29]
The activity of CYP11A1 is affected by substrate structure: sterols with steroidal or Δ7-steroidal structures undergo side chain cleavage following hydroxylations at C22 and C20, whereas vitamin D metabolism involves sequential hydroxylations starting at C20 without cleavage.
“The activity of CYP11A1 is affected by the structure of the substrate with sterols having steroidal or Δ7-steroidal structures undergoing side chain cleavage following hydroxylations at C22 and C20. In contrast, metabolism of vitamin D involves sequential hydroxylations that start at C20 but do not lead to cleavage.”
From Novel activities of CYP11A1 and their potential physiological significance (2015) · cites this paper as [29]
Recombinant human CYP11A1 shows a similar sequence of reactions for vitamin D2, with 20(OH)D2 as the major product and lower production of 17,20(OH)2D2 and 17,20,24(OH)3D2 and another unidentified D2 metabolite.
“A similar sequence of reactions was seen for recombinant human CYP11A1 [9]. The major product was 20(OH)D2 with lower production of 17,20(OH)2D2 and 17,20,24 (OH)3D2 and another unidentified D2 metabolite [28,29].”

From Novel activities of CYP11A1 and their potential physiological significance (2015) · cites this paper as [29]
Initial CYP11A1 hydroxylation of vitamin D2 is at C20, producing 20S(OH)D2 as the major product, with 17,20(OH)2D2 and 17,20,24(OH)3D2 as other products.
“The initial hydroxylation is at C20 producing 20S(OH)D2 as the major product, with other products being 17,20(OH)2D2 and 17,20,24(OH)3D2 [180, 186, 187].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
