Structure of human steroid 5α-reductase 2 with the anti-androgen drug finasteride
Human steroid 5α-reductase 2 (SRD5A2) is an integral membrane enzyme and catalyzes 5α-reduction of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone. Structural analysis accompanied by computational and mutagenesis studies reveal the mechanisms of catalysis and inhibition by clinically relevant drugs targeting SR...
