Metabolite Identification
Common Name5b-Dihydrotestosterone
Description5b-Dihydrotestosterone, also known as 5-beta-DHT or 5-Β-DHT, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as androgens and derivatives. These are 3-hydroxylated C19 steroid hormones. They are known to favor the development of masculine characteristics. They also show profound effects on scalp and body hair in humans. Thus, 5b-dihydrotestosterone is considered to be a steroid. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on 5b-Dihydrotestosterone.

Enzymes

General function:
Involved in oxidoreductase activity
Specific function:
Efficiently catalyzes the reduction of progesterone, androstenedione, 17-alpha-hydroxyprogesterone and testosterone to 5-beta-reduced metabolites. The bile acid intermediates 7-alpha,12-alpha-dihydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one and 7-alpha-hydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one can also act as substrates.
