Abstract

Cytochrome P-45011β is a key enzyme in the biosynthesis of aldosterone which catalyzes the transformation of 11-deoxycorticosterone (DOC) to aldosterone via three successive hydroxylations (at C-11 and at C-18). This enzyme is irreversibly inactivated by 18-VP 1 and 18-EP 4. In order to determine the mechanism of the inactivation, we have synthesized three potential reactive enzyme-generated intermediates 2, 3 and 5.
