Aromatase

Aromatase, also called estrogen synthetase or estrogen synthase, is an enzyme responsible for a key step in the biosynthesis of estrogens. It is CYP19A1, a member of the cytochrome P450 superfamily, which are monooxygenases that catalyze many reactions involved in steroidogenesis. In particular, aromatase is responsible for the aromatization of androgens into estrogens.

Medicine
Aromatic

Cyclic unsaturated hydrocarbons identified by one or more benzene rings or by chemical behaviour similar to benzene. Aromatics are usually more reactive and have higher solvency than paraffin and naphthenes. Aromatics readily undergo electrophilic substitution; that is, they react to add other active molecular groups, such as nitrates, sulphonates, etc. Aromatics are used extensively as petrochemical building blocks.
