M. Ohta et al., METABOLISM OF 11-DEOXYCORTISOL BY CYTOCHROME P450(11-BETA) - IDENTIFICATION OF REACTION-PRODUCTS BY H-1-NMR AND LC MS-APCI METHOD/, Endocrine research, 21(1-2), 1995, pp. 477-481
A hitherto-unidentified steroid produced in the reaction mixture of 11
-deoxycortisol with bovine cytochrome P450(11 beta) reconstitution sys
tem was purified by repeated HPLCs, and subjected to H-1-NMR analysis.
The result suggested that the new metabolite was 19-oxo-11-deoxycorti
sol. This was further confirmed by a new analytical technique using LC
/MS equipped with atmospheric pressure chemical ion (APCI)-analyzer.
