In order to understand the activity specificity of the hamster cytochrome P450 17 alpha-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase (P450c17), we have studied its structure/activity using three hamster P450c17 recombinant mutants (T202N/D240N/D407H). In transiently tran

Complementary DNAs encoding the hamster type 2 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/delta 5-->4 isomerase were isolated from liver and kidney cDNA libraries. Nine clones were isolated containing identical coding and 3' untranslated sequences. However,

We have isolated a hamster adrenal P 450C11 cDNA which shared 90 and 84% homology, respectively, with the nucleotide sequence and the amino acid sequence of the hamster adrenal P 450aldo. Both P 450C11 and P 450aldo cDNA coding sequences were inserte

The enzyme 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase Δ 5→4 - isomerase (3β-HSD) is essential for the production of all classes of steroid hormones. Multiple isozymes of this enzyme have been demonstrated in the kidney and liver of both the rat and the mou

The cytochrome P450c17 isoforms from various animal species have different substrate selectivity, especially for 17,20-lyase activity. In particular, the human P450c17 selectively produces dehydroepiandrosterone with little androstenedione (AD). Hams

The steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (StAR) is the major entrance for cholesterol in mitochondria under acute stimulation. Under such circumstances, dysfunctional StAR activity can ultimately lead to lipoid congenital adrenal hyperplasia (LCAH)

In this study, we report the cDNA cloning of hamster adrenal steroidogenic acute regulatory (StAR) protein and the effect of adrenocorticotrophin (ACTH) on its expression in vivo. A hamster adrenal cDNA library was screened using an 852 bp fragment o

Western blot analyses of various hamster tissues reveal high levels of expression of 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3 beta-HSD) in adrenal and liver, and moderate levels of expression in kidney. The expression in liver is sexually dimorphic; ve

Angiotensin-II (AII), a component of the renin-angiotensin system, is the major factor that regulates the formation of aldosterone in the adrenal cortex zona glomerulosa (ZG). The activity of this system is increased by an increase in potassium intak

The hamster, a rodent possessing adrenal 17 alpha-hydroxylase activity, was used to study the effect of ACTH on the regulation of cortisol formation in vivo. The characterization of the mRNA and protein of hamster adrenal steroidogenic enzymes reveal
