1. 5-Cholesten-3-one was shown to be an intermediate in the conversion of cholesterol into 4-cholesten-3-one by Nocardia cholesterol oxidase. 2. The absence of a C-17 side chain from 5-androstene-3,17-dione slightly increased the Vmax. of the isomerase activity relative to 5-cholesten-3-one

Fast-growing strain of Mycobacterium sp. VKM Ac-1815D is capable of effective oxidizing of sterols (phytosterol, cholesterol, ergosterol) to androstenedione and other valuable 3-oxo-steroids. To elucidate the role of cholesterol oxidase in sterol catabolism by the strain, the choD gene has
