1 The liver-type, NADP(+)-dependent 11 beta-HSD-1, has an affinity in the micromolar range and bidirectional activity. NADP 11-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 1 Ovis aries
2 The NADP(+)-dependent activity had a Km for corticosterone of 4 +/- 1.3 nM for a Km for cortisol of 35.2 +/- 2 nM, 100-fold lower than that described for the 11 beta-HSD-1 in the liver of sheep and other species, and was more prevalent in the microsomes than the nuclei. NADP 11-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 1 Ovis aries
