Abstract

In addition to the well-known 3 alpha,20 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase ('cortisone reductase'), Streptomyces hydrogenans produces a relatively stable, NAD-dependent 20 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase of molecular mass approximately 48 kDa. This enzyme catalyzes the transfer of hydrogen from the 4-pro-S position of NADH.
