Descriptor androstenodiol
Scope note: Intermediario en la biosíntesis de la TESTOSTERONA que se encuentra el TESTÍCULO o las GLÁNDULAS SUPRARRENALES. El androstenodiol, derivado de la DESHIDROEPIANDROSTERONA por reducción del grupo 17-ceto (17-HIDROXIESTEROIDE DESHIDROGENASAS), se convierte en TESTOSTERONA por oxidación del grupo 3-beta hidroxilo que da lugar a un grupo 3-ceto (3-HIDROXIESTEROIDE DESHIDROGENASAS).

Scope note: An intermediate in TESTOSTERONE biosynthesis, found in the TESTIS or the ADRENAL GLANDS. Androstenediol, derived from DEHYDROEPIANDROSTERONE by the reduction of the 17-keto group (17-HYDROXYSTEROID DEHYDROGENASES), is converted to TESTOSTERONE by the oxidation of the 3-beta hydroxyl group to a 3-keto group (3-HYDROXYSTEROID DEHYDROGENASES).
