Deoxycholate 7 alpha-hydroxylase in the hamster: substrate specificity and effect of phenobarbital.

In a recent publication, we reported that deoxycholic acid is 7 alpha-hydroxylated to yield glycocholate or taurocholate in vivo in the hamster (1987. Kuroki et al. Hepatology. 7: 229-234). In order to explore the possibility that amidation of free deoxycholic acid precedes the 7 alpha-hydroxylation...
