Accepted name: |
7α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase |
Reaction: |
cholate + NAD+ = 3α,12α-dihydroxy-7-oxo-5β-cholan-24-oate + NADH + H+ |
Glossary: |
cholate = 3α,7α,12α-trihydroxy-5β-cholan-24-oate |
Other name(s): |
7α-hydroxy steroid dehydrogenase; 7α-HSDH |
Systematic name: |
7α-hydroxysteroid:NAD+ 7-oxidoreductase |
Comments: |
Catalyses the oxidation of the 7α-hydroxy group of bile acids and alcohols both in their free and conjugated forms. The Bacteroides fragilis and Clostridium enzymes can also utilize NADP+. |
