&#039;&#039;&#039;3-β-HSD&#039;&#039;&#039; (or &#039;&#039;&#039;3-β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/Δ-5-4 isomerase&#039;&#039;&#039;) ({{EC number|1.1.1.145}}) is an [[enzyme]] that [[catalysis|catalyzes]] the synthesis of [[progesterone]] from [[pregnenolone]], 17-hydroxyprogesterone from 17-hydroxypregnenolone, and [[androstenedione]] from [[dehydroepiandrosterone]] in the adrenal gland. It is the only enzyme in the adrenal pathway of [[corticosteroid]] synthesis that is not a member of the [[Cytochrome P450]] family.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;pmid3088022&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal | author = Cravioto MD, Ulloa-Aguirre A, Bermudez JA, Herrera J, Lisker R, Mendez JP, Perez-Palacios G | title = A new inherited variant of the 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase-isomerase deficiency syndrome: evidence for the existence of two isoenzymes | journal = J. Clin. Endocrinol.

&lt;br /&gt;
It is also known as delta 5-delta 4-isomerase, which catalyzes the oxidative conversion of delta 5-3 beta- [[hydroxysteroid]]s to the delta 4-3-keto configuration and is, therefore, essential for the [[biosynthesis]] of all classes of [[hormonal]] [[steroid]]s, namely [[progesterone]], [[glucocorticoids]], [[mineralocorticoids]], [[androgen]]s, and [[estrogen]]s.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;pmid1737804&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal | author = Lachance Y, Luu-The V, Labrie C, Simard J, Dumont M, de Launoit Y, Guérin S, Leblanc G, Labrie F | title = Characterization of human 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/delta 5-delta 4-isomerase gene and its expression in mammalian cells | journal = J. Biol. Chem. | volume = 267 | issue = 5 | pages = 3551 |date=February 1992 | pmid = 1737804 | doi = | url = }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The 3-beta HSD complex is responsible for the conversion of:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* [[pregnenolone]] to [[progesterone]]&lt;br /&gt;
* 17-alpha-pregnenolone to 17-alpha-progesterone&lt;br /&gt;
* dehydroepiandrosterone ([[DHEA]]) to [[androstenedione]]&lt;br /&gt;
* [[androstenediol]] to [[testosterone]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Reaction ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3-β-HSD belongs to the family of [[oxidoreductase]]s, to be specific, those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with NAD&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;+&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt; or NADP&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;+&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt; as acceptor. This enzyme participates in c21-steroid hormone metabolism and androgen and estrogen metabolism.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3-β-HSD [[catalysis|catalyzes]] the [[chemical reaction]]:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:a 3β-hydroxy-Δ5-steroid + NAD&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;+&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt; &amp;lt;math&amp;gt;\rightleftharpoons&amp;lt;/math&amp;gt; a 3-oxo-Δ5-steroid + NADH + H&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;+&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Thus, the two [[substrate (biochemistry)|substrates]] of this enzyme are 3β-hydroxy-Δ5-steroid and [[nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide|NAD&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;+&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt;]], whereas its 3 [[product (chemistry)|products]] are 3-oxo-Δ5-steroid, [[nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide|NADH]], and [[hydrogen ion|H&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;+&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt;]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Isozymes ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Humans express two 3-β-HSD [[isozyme]]s, [[HSD3B1]] (type I) and [[HSD3B2]] (type II).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;pmid15632317&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal | author = Simard J, Ricketts ML, Gingras S, Soucy P, Feltus FA, Melner MH | title = Molecular biology of the 3beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/delta5-delta4 isomerase gene family | journal = Endocr. Rev. | volume = 26 | issue = 4 | pages = 525–82 |date=June 2005 | pmid = 15632317 | doi = 10.1210/er.2002-0050 | url = }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The type I isoenzyme is expressed in placenta and peripheral tissues, whereas the type II 3β-HSD isoenzyme is expressed in the adrenal gland, ovary, and testis.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Nomenclature ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The systematic name of this enzyme class is &#039;&#039;&#039;3β-hydroxy-Δ5-steroid:NAD&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;+&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt; 3-oxidoreductase&#039;&#039;&#039;. Other names in common use include:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* progesterone reductase&lt;br /&gt;
* Δ5-3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase&lt;br /&gt;
* 3β-hydroxy-5-ene steroid dehydrogenase&lt;br /&gt;
* 3β-hydroxy steroid dehydrogenase/isomerase&lt;br /&gt;
* 3β-hydroxy-Δ5-C27-steroid dehydrogenase/isomerase&lt;br /&gt;
* 3β-hydroxy-Δ5-C27-steroid oxidoreductase&lt;br /&gt;
* 3β-hydroxy-5-ene-steroid oxidoreductase&lt;br /&gt;
* steroid-Δ5-3β-ol dehydrogenase&lt;br /&gt;
* 3β-HSDH&lt;br /&gt;
* 5-ene-3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase&lt;br /&gt;
* 3β-hydroxy-5-ene-steroid dehydrogenase&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Inhibitors ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
3-β-HSD is inhibited by [[trilostane]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;pmid8809191&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal | author = Cooke GM | title = Differential effects of trilostane and cyanoketone on the 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase-isomerase reactions in androgen and 16-androstene biosynthetic pathways in the pig testis | journal = J.

==Clinical significance==&lt;br /&gt;
A deficiency in the type II form through mutations in HSD3B2 is responsible for a rare form of [[congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase deficiency|congenital adrenal hyperplasia]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;pmid1363812&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal | author = Rhéaume E, Simard J, Morel Y, Mebarki F, Zachmann M, Forest MG, New MI, Labrie F | title = Congenital adrenal hyperplasia due to point mutations in the type II 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase gene | journal = Nat.

Its importance in placental progesterone production expression suggests that such a mutation would be embryonically lethal.&lt;br /&gt;
