Mitochondrial localization of 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 5-ene isomerase in interrenals of the toad Bufo arenarum H.

The enzymatic activity of 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 5-ene isomerase (3βHSD/I) catalyzes an essential step in the biosynthesis of steroid hormones including progesterone, mineralocorticoids, glucocorticoids, estrogens, and androgens. Its subcellular localization in steroidogenic tissues is usua...
