| EC Number | 1.1.3.6 |
| CAS Registry Number | 9028-76-6 |
| Comments | Contains flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD). Cholesterol oxidases are secreted bacterial bifunctional enzymes that catalyse the first two steps in the degradation of cholesterol. The enzyme catalyses the oxidation of the 3¦Â-hydroxyl group to a keto group, and the isomerization of the double bond in the oxidized steroid ring system from the ¦¤5 position to the ¦¤6 position (cf. EC 5.3.3.1, steroid ¦¤-isomerase). |
