| 1 | The isozymes of the 17 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (17 beta-HSD) gene family are responsible for the formation of the 17 beta-hydroxysteroids delta 5-androstene-3 beta,17 beta-diol, testosterone, 17 beta-estradiol, and dihydrotestosterone from their corresponding 17-ketosteroid precursors, thus playing a pivotal role in the formation of active sex steroids in both steroidogenic and peripheral target tissues. | Testosterone | hydroxysteroid 17-beta dehydrogenase 7 | Homo sapiens |
