ID 3.3.2.11 DE cholesterol-5,6-oxide hydrolase. AN ChEH. AN cholesterol-epoxide hydrolase. CA (1) 5,6alpha-epoxy-5alpha-cholestan-3beta-ol + H2O = 5alpha-cholestane- CA 3beta,5,6beta-triol. CA (2) 5,6beta-epoxy-5beta-cholestan-3beta-ol + H2O = 5alpha-cholestane- CA 3beta,5,6beta-triol. CC -!- The enzyme appears to work equally well with both diastereoisomers of CC cholesterol 5,6-epoxide. CC -!- The product is a competitive inhibitor of the reaction. DR O33283, EPHG_MYCTU ; //
