Ketosteroid Dehydrogenase (KstD) is a critical oxidoreductase enzyme used in the biosynthesis of steroid pharmaceuticals. It catalyzes the dehydrogenation of 1,4-androstadiene-3,17-dione to produce high-purity intermediates for hormone synthesis. The enzyme operates under specific pH and temperature conditions to ensure optimal activity.
Store at -20°C or below to maintain stability. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Personnel must wear appropriate PPE including gloves and eye protection when handling concentrated solutions to prevent skin irritation.
