A StAR search: implications in controlling steroidgenesis.

Biology of reproduction - 1 Feb 1997

Stocco D M

Abstract excerpt

Acute steroid hormone synthesis in response to trophic hormone is controlled at the level of cholesterol delivery to the inner mitochondrial membrane, the site of the P450 side-chain cleavage (P450scc) enzyme that will convert it to pregnenolone, the first steroid synthesized. This process is known to have an absolute requirement for de novo protein synthesis. To date several proteins have been proposed as the...
