Crystallization and preliminary X-ray crystallographic analysis of the human type 3 3α-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase at 1.8 Å resolution
Bibliographic record
Abstract
In androgen-sensitive target tissues, 3 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase regulates the androgen receptor (AR) activity by catalyzing the inactivation of 5 alpha-dihydrotestosterone (the most natural potent androgen) to 5 alpha-androstane-3 alpha,17 beta-diol. In this report, the crystallization of a human prostatic type 3 3 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, a member of the aldo-keto reductase superfamily, is described. Two different crystal forms of the complex between the human type 3 3 alpha-HSD, NADP(+) and testosterone have been obtained using PEG as precipitant. Crystal form I, which diffracts to 1.6 A, belongs to the monoclinic space group P2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 55.07, b = 87.15, c = 76.88 A, beta = 107.37 degrees and two subunits in the asymmetric unit. A complete data set has been collected at 1.8 A. Crystal form II, which diffracts to 2.6 A, belongs to the rhombohedral space group R32, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 143.59, c = 205.86 A, alpha = beta = 90, gamma = 120 degrees and two subunits in the asymmetric unit.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
