text Cytochrome P450 8B1 (CYP8B1, sterol 12-alpha- hydroxylase) has a broad substrate specificity including a number of 7-alpha- hydroxylated C27 steroids. It is also involved in bile acid synthesis and is responsible for the balance between the formation of cholic acid and chenodeoxycholic acid (Gafvels et al. 1999).
