TL;DR: Coenzyme (NADP+) completely protected the enzyme from this inactivation by disulfides, but neither of the substrates (androsterone and benzenedihydrodiol) did and the activity of inactivated enzyme was restored by treatment with thiols such as DTT (dithiothreitol) or GSH.

TL;DR: It has been suggested that dihydrodiol dehydrogenase plays an important role in the detoxification of the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon through the effective suppression in the formation of the ultimate carcinogenic anti-diol epoxides.
