Biological Properties
General Function Not Available
Specific Function 7beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase that catalyzes the reduction of the 7-oxo group of 7-oxo-lithocholate (7-oxo-LCA), to yield ursodeoxycholate (UDCA) (PubMed:21181147, PubMed:6954878, PubMed:27006087). As C.aerofaciens is an intestinal bacterium, this enzyme probably contributes to the formation of UDCA in the human colon. UDCA is regarded as a chemopreventive beneficial secondary bile acid due to its low hydrophobicity; it protects hepatocytes and bile duct epithelial cells against necrosis and apoptosis induced by more hydrophobic secondary bile acids like deoxycholate (DCA) (Probable). This enzyme is also able to catalyze the reverse reaction, i.e. the oxidation of the 7beta-hydroxy group of UDCA to 7-oxo-LCA (PubMed:21181147, PubMed:6954878). To a lesser extent, is also active on the taurine- and glycine-conjugates of ursodeoxycholate. It is specific for NADPH/NADP(+) as the electron acceptor/donor since it is not active with NADH/NAD(+) (PubMed:6954878). In the presence of NADPH, 7beta-HSDH can also reduce dehydrocholate (PubMed:21181147). And is also able to oxidize ursocholate (PubMed:27006087).
