โฆ Synopsis
Cholic acid (3a.7a12a-trihydroxy-5~cholanoic acid) was completely and selectively transformed into 1Zketomsodeoxycholic acid (3a,7@lihydroxy-12-oxo-Sf&cholanoic acid) by means of hvo consecutive enzymatic steps catalyzed, the fifit. by 7u-and 12a-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and, the second, by 76hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase. Coenzyme regeneration was carried out with a-ketoglutarate-glutamate dehydrogenase and glucose-glucose dehydrogenase, respectively.
