Effect of biliary obstruction on 26-hydroxylation of C27-steroids in bile acid synthesis
The effect of biliary obstruction on side chain hydroxylations in the biosynthesis and metabolism of bile acids was studied in the rat. For comparison, several other hydroxylation reactions in bile acid biosynthesis and metabolism were assayed.

The regulatory mechanisms of proline and hydroxyproline metabolism: Recent advances in perspective
For diverse human tumors, growth and metastasis are dependent on proline synthesis, but the mechanisms underlying this association are not clear. Proline incorporated into collagen is primarily synthesized from glutamine.

2D titanium carbonitrides and their hydroxylated derivatives: Structural, electronic properties and stability of MXenes Ti3C2-xNx and Ti3C2-xNx(OH)2 [PDF]
3D titanium carbonitrides TiCxNy possess excellent physical, chemical, and mechanical properties, attractive for various industrial applications. Most recently, the uncommon nano-sized layers of 2D-like titanium carbonitrides were fabricated from MAX phases.

On the heterogeneity of the mitochondrial C27-steroid 26-hydroxylase system
Mitochondrial 26-hydroxylation of exogenous cholesterol, endogenous cholesterol, and 5β-cholestane-3α,7α,12α-triol was studied. 26-Hydroxylation of endogenous cholesterol was measured by mass fragmentography.

Biotransformation of Isoflavone Using Enzymatic Reactions
The roles of cytochrome P450 monooxygenases (CYPs) from Streptomyces spp. which are called the “treasure islands” for natural products for medicine and antibiotics are not well understood.

Characterization of 6 alpha-hydroxylation of taurochenodeoxycholic acid in pig liver.
The properties of the species-specific 6 alpha-hydroxylation of taurochenodeoxycholic acid were studied in subcellular fractions from pig liver. The hydroxylation was observed in microsomes but not in mitochondria.
