11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In enzymology, a 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.146) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
- an 11beta-hydroxysteroid + NADP+
an 11-oxosteroid + NADPH + H+
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are 11beta-hydroxysteroid and NADP+, whereas its 3 products are 11-oxosteroid, NADPH, and H+.
This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with NAD+ or NADP+ as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 11beta-hydroxysteroid:NADP+ 11-oxidoreductase. Other names in common use include corticosteroid 11beta-dehydrogenase, beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, 11beta-hydroxy steroid dehydrogenase, corticosteroid 11-reductase, and dehydrogenase, 11beta-hydroxy steroid. This enzyme participates in c21-steroid hormone metabolism and androgen and estrogen metabolism.
