Steroid Chemistry and Biochemistry

This cluster of papers focuses on the microbial transformation and degradation of steroids, particularly cholesterol, by various microorganisms such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis and actinobacteria. It explores the enzymatic processes involved in steroid metabolism, including the role of cholesterol oxidase and 3-ketosteroid dehydrogenases. The cluster also delves into the biotechnological applications and potential biotransformation of steroids for drug development.

Papers listed on taxonomy pages are the top few works per node from the OpenAlex snapshot. That list is not exhaustive and is not an endorsement. The topic map and the journal registry remain separate: there is still no authoritative topic-to-venue or topic-to-organization edge. Search is a lexical lookup, not a claim that a venue publishes a topic.
