Bile acid synthesis: 7 alpha-hydroxylation of intermediates in the sterol 27-hydroxylase metabolic pathway.
The recognition that the 7 alpha-hydroxylation of 27-hydroxycholesterol is catalyzed by an enzyme that is different from cholesterol 7 alpha-hydroxylase raises the question as to the number of similar enzymes that may be present in liver and subserve bile acid synthesis. Thus, both 3 beta-hydroxy-5-...
