We apologize for Proteopedia being slow to respond. For the past two years, a new implementation of Proteopedia has been being built. Soon, it will replace this 18-year old system. All existing content will be moved to the new system at a date that will be announced here.
Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase
From Proteopedia
Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (HSD) catalyzes the dehydrogenation of hydroxysteroids. HSD is classified according to the number of the carbon it is acting on.
- 3-α HSD catalyzes the conversion of androsterone to 5α-androstane-3, 17-dione and 17-α estradiol to estrone. 3-α HSD (also named 17-α HSD) is a bile acid-metabolizing enzyme.
- 7-α HSD is involved in the dehydrogenation of cholanate compounds and is a bile acid-inducible enzyme[1].
- 20-α HSD is involved in the control of progesterone level in pregnancy of mice[2].
- 11-β HSD converts 11-keto products like cortisone to cortisol[3].
- 17-β HSD is involved in the conversion of androstenedione to testosterone[4].
- 3-β/17-β HSD catalyzes the reversible dehydrogenation of steroid compounds at position 3 and 17[5].
NAD and NADP are cofactors of HSD.
