Purification of 20 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase from human erythrocytes. 1980

E Shirasawa, and M Takeshita, and Y Yoneyama

20 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase was found in the supernatant after hemolysis of human erythrocytes, and the enzyme was isolated from the membrane-free hemolysate on a DEAE-cellulose column. The NADPH-generating system was essential for the reaction.
