Enzyme Commission Number
EC 1.1.1.270
Product Overview
High-quality enzyme products.
Well-established quality management system.
Reaction
a 3β-hydroxysteroid + NADP+ = a 3-oxosteroid + NADPH + H+
Systematic Name
3β-hydroxysteroid:NADP+ 3-oxidoreductase
Function
The enzyme acts on multiple 3β-hydroxysteroids. Participates in the biosynthesis of zemosterol and cholesterol, where it catalyses the reaction in the opposite direction to that shown. The mammalian enzyme is bifunctional and also catalyses EC 1.1.1.62, 17β-estradiol 17-dehydrogenase.
Other name
3-keto-steroid reductase; 3-KSR; HSD17B7 (gene name); ERG27 (gene name)
