The substrate specificity and conformational flexibility of ketosteroid hydroxylases
3-Ketosteroid-9α-hydroxylase (KshAB) is a Rieske oxygenase involved in bacterial steroid degradation. Bacteria such as Rhodococcus rhodochrous DSM43269 harbor up to five KshA homologues (numbered 1 to 5) that appear to be involved in degrading different steroids. Previous work indicated that KshA5 (...
