Abstract：
:Key to the production of biologically active steroids is the enzyme 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase-isomerase. Some controversy has arisen concerning the subcellular distribution of this enzyme within steroidogenic cells. The distribution of 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase-isomerase was assessed in subcellular fractions obtained from homogenates of rat, bovine, and mouse adrenal glands in two ways. The activity of 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase-isomerase was quantitated by measuring the conversion of radiolabeled pregnenolone to radiolabeled progesterone in an aliquot of each of the fractions obtained. The presence of the enzyme was assessed by performing Western analyses on aliquots of each of the fractions obtained with the use of a specific polyclonal antiserum against 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase-isomerase, the characterization of which is described. In control experiments, the degree of contamination of the fractions was determined by assessing the presence of known subcellular fraction markers with Western analysis. In the bovine and mouse adrenal glands, 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase-isomerase appears to be localized solely in the microsomal fraction, while in the rat, 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase-isomerase appears to have dual subcellular distribution: the microsomes and the inner mitochondrial membrane. We conclude that there is a species difference in the subcellular distribution of this important steroidogenic enzyme and that this species difference may be related to the steroidogenic pathway preferred in that species.
