Mouse embryos contain polypeptide growth factor(s) capable of inducing a reversible neoplastic phenotype in nontransformed cells in culture.

TL;DR: The similarities of this mouse embryo‐derived growth factor to previously identified transforming growth factors suggest that both fetal development and neoplastic transformation may be affected by similar mechanisms.

pH dependence of the kinetic parameters for 3-oxo-delta 5-steroid isomerase. Substrate catalysis and inhibition by (3S)-spiro[5 alpha-androstane-3,2'-oxiran]-17-one.

TL;DR: The similarity of the pH-rate profiles for isomerization of 4 and inhibition by 7 beta suggests that both reactions may be governed by the ionization state of the same carboxyl group of the enzyme.

The 6-A crystal structure of delta 5-3-ketosteroid isomerase. Architecture and location of the active center.

TL;DR: The crystal structure of the dimeric steroid metabolizing enzyme, delta 5-3-ketosteroid isomerase (EC 5.3.1), has been solved to 6-A resolution by multiple isomorphous replacement, augmented by real space direct methods.
Journal ArticleDOI

A tale of two isomerases: compact versus extended active sites in ketosteroid isomerase and phosphoglucose isomerase.

TL;DR: Computational active site predictors, THEMATICS and POOL, were employed to identify functionally important residues that are not in direct contact with the reacting substrate molecule and demonstrate that, as predicted, remote residues are very important in PGI catalysis but make only small contributions to catalysis in KSI.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of active site residues by site-directed mutagenesis of delta 5-3-ketosteroid isomerase from Pseudomonas putida biotype B.

TL;DR: Results indicate that active-site residues of the two homologous enzymes are similar, opposite to the previous identification of a cysteine in an active site-directed photoinactivation study of the delta 5-3-ketosteroid isomerase.
