A series of unsaturated steroids bearing a 3-carboxy substituent has been prepared and assayed in vitro as inhibitors of human and rat prostatic steroid Sa-reductase (EC 1.3. 1.30). It is proposed that the observed tight binding of the 3-androstene-3-carboxylic acids is due to mimicry of a putative, high-energy, enzymebound enolate intermediate formed during the NADPH-dependent conjugate reduction of testosterone by steroid 5a-reductase. These ...
