Taurochenodeoxycholate 6alpha-hydroxylase (, CYP3A4, CYP4A21, taurochenodeoxycholate 6alpha-monooxygenase) is an enzyme with systematic name taurochenodeoxycholate,NADPH:oxygen oxidoreductase (6alpha-hydroxylating). This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

: (1) taurochenodeoxycholate + NADPH + H+ + O2 \rightleftharpoons taurohyocholate + NADP+ + H2O : (2) lithocholate + NADPH + H+ + O2 \rightleftharpoons hyodeoxycholate + NADP+ + H2O

Taurochenodeoxycholate 6α-hydroxylase is a heme-thiolate protein (P-450).
