Mitochondrial cytochromes P450 presumably originated from a common microsomal ancestor. However, it is still unknown how ancient mitochondrial P450s were able to retain their oxygenase function following relocation the matrix and later emerged as enzymes specialized for steroid hormone biosynthesis in vertebrates. Here, we used approach of ancestral sequence reconstruction (ASR) resurrect CYP11A1 characterize unique biochemical properties. Two variants, CYP11A_Mammal_N101 CYP11A_N1, well an...
