5beta-cholestan-3-one:NADP+ 4,5-oxidoreductase
The enzyme from human efficiently catalyses the reduction of progesterone, androstenedione, 17alpha-hydroxyprogesterone and testosterone to 5beta-reduced metabolites; it can also act on aldosterone, corticosterone and cortisol, but to a lesser extent [8]. The bile acid intermediates 7alpha,12alpha-dihydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one and 7alpha-hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one can also act as substrates [9].
AKR1D1 catalyzes the stereospecific reduction of the delta4-double-bond of circulating steroid hormones that contain the delta4-3-ketosteroid functionality, e.g. the reduction of testosteron, progesterone and cortisol to yield the corresponding 5-dihydrosteroid
aldo-keto reductases are a major superfamily of monomeric NADPH-dependent carbonyl oxidoreductases, active site contains conserved residues D50, Y55, K84, and H117
the steroid 5beta-reductases catalyze a reaction that is unique in steroid enzymology since the resultant product contains a cis-A/B ring configuration and accordingly contains a 90° bend, the cis-A/B ring configuration is an essential characteristic of cardiac glycosides, e.g. digioxin and bile acids and their precursors

LITERATURE
5beta-POR, in the presence and absence of the cofactor NADP+, hanging drop vapour diffusion method, using 15% polyethylene glycol 4000, 0.1 M ammonium acetate, and 0.1 M sodium citrate, pH 5.6
by the hanging-drop method, at 2.7 A resolution, crystals belong to space group P43212, contain a single 5beta-POR molecule in the asymmetric unit and tend to diffract anisotropically, identification of six out of eight possible Se-atom positions
the crystal structure of the 5beta-POR-NADP+ binary complex reveals that 5beta-POR exhibits a characteristic short-chain dehydrogenase fold with an N-terminal domain consisting of a double Rossmann fold for cofactor binding and an insertional domain between strands betaF and betaG of about 100 residues for substrate binding, crystal structure of the 5beta-POR-NADP+ binary complex reveals that the side chain of K147 is found in a similar position to the lysine residue of the YXX(S)K motif in standard short-chain dehydrogenases
DNA and amino acid sequence determination and analysis, sequence comparisons, expression of wild-type and mutant enzymes in Escherichia coli strain M15
5beta-POR is highly conserved within the genus Digitalis and the respective genes and proteins share considerable homology to putative progesterone reductases from other plant species
5beta-POR is highly conserved within the genus Digitalis and the respective genes and proteins share considerable homology to putative progesterone reductases from other plant species
inspection of the MAD-phased electron-density map shows that 5beta-POR is a Rossmann-type reductase and the quality of the map is such that it is anticipated that a complete atomic model of 5beta-POR may readily be built
