Isolation of a New Mouse 3β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase Isoform, 3β-HSD VI, Expressed During Early Pregnancy<sup>1</sup>
1 Apr 1997
Abstract excerpt
The enzyme 3beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3beta-HSD) is a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of steroid hormones. To date, this laboratory has isolated and characterized five distinct 3beta-HSD complementary DNAs (cDNAs) in the mouse (3beta-HSD I through V). These different forms are expressed in a tissue- and developmentally-specific manner and fall into two functionally distinct enzymes. 3beta-HSD I and III,...
