[Effect of 6beta-Methoxy-9beta,10alpha-pregna-4,6-diene-3,20-dione (Ro 6-1963) on the steroid reductases in rat liver]. 1976

V Graef, and S W Golf

6beta-Methoxy-9beta,10 alpha-pregna-4,6-diene-3,20-dione inhibits the delta4-3-oxosteroid-5alpha-reduction in microsomes and the delta4-3-oxosteroid-5beta-reduction in the soluble fraction of male rat liver. The 3alpha- and 3beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase are not inhibited by these substances.

D010088	Oxidoreductases	The class of all enzymes catalyzing oxidoreduction reactions. The substrate that is oxidized is regarded as a hydrogen donor. The systematic name is based on donor:acceptor oxidoreductase. The recommended name will be dehydrogenase, wherever this is possible; as an alternative, reductase can be used. Oxidase is only used in cases where O2 is the acceptor. (Enzyme Nomenclature, 1992, p9)	Dehydrogenases,Oxidases,Oxidoreductase,Reductases,Dehydrogenase,Oxidase,Reductase
