Cholesterol oxidase, Microorganism
Based on 2 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Cholesterol oxidase, Microorganism (ChOx) is a bacterial flavin oxidase containing FAD, commonly used in biochemical research. Cholesterol oxidase catalyzes the oxidation of the C(3)-OH group of cholesterol (and other sterols) to cholest-5-en-3-one and isomerizes it to cholest-4-en-3-one.
