Metabolite Identification
Common Name5a-Pregnane-3,20-dione
Description5a-5a-5a-pregnane-3,20-dione, also known as 5a-5a-pregnane-3,20-dione or 5a-5a-pregnane-3,20-dione, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as gluco/mineralocorticoids, progestogins and derivatives. These are steroids with a structure based on a hydroxylated prostane moiety. Thus, 5a-5a-pregnane-3,20-dione is considered to be a steroid lipid molecule. 5a-5a-5a-pregnane-3,20-dione exists as a solid, very hydrophobic, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral molecule. 5a-5a-5a-pregnane-3,20-dione exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. 5a-5a-5a-pregnane-3,20-dione participates in a number of enzymatic reactions, within cattle. In particular, 5a-5a-5a-pregnane-3,20-dione can be biosynthesized from progesterone; which is catalyzed by the enzyme 3-oxo-5-beta-steroid 4-dehydrogenase. In addition, 5a-5a-5a-pregnane-3,20-dione can be biosynthesized from 3a-hydroxy-5b-pregnane-20-one; which is catalyzed by the enzyme aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C4. In cattle, 5a-5a-pregnane-3,20-dione is involved in the metabolic pathway called the steroidogenesis pathway.
