Construction and analysis of a kinetic model of the ovine adrenal steroidogenic subsystem comprising of CYP17 and 3β-HSD

ENGLISH ABSTRACT : This study describes: how time-dependent experimental data, describing the reactions catalyzed by ovine cytochrome P450 17α-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase (CYP17), was obtained using pregnenolone and progesterone as substrates ; the construction and validation of a kinetic model and...
