Gut Bacteria Encode Reductases that Biotransform Steroid Hormones

Gabriela Arp, Angela K Jiang, Keith Dufault‐Thompson…·Xiaofang Jiang

Gut bacteria encode 5β-reductase, fused 3β-HSDH/Δ5-4 isomerase and Δ6-3-ketosteroid reductase enzymes acting on steroid hormones; two of these genes are enriched in female gut metagenomes.
