Steroidogenesis.svg‎ (SVG file, nominally 1,245 × 1,105 pixels, file size: 114 KB)

This is a file from the Wikimedia Commons. The description on its description page there is shown below.
Commons is a freely licensed media file repository. You can help.

This is a featured picture, which means that members of the community have identified it as one of the finest images on the English Wikipedia, adding significantly to its accompanying article.

[edit] Summary

Description	Steroidogenesis.svg English: Enzymes, their cellular location, substrates and products in human steroidogenesis. Shown also is the major classes of steroid hormones: progestagens, mineralocorticoids, glucocorticoids, androgens and estrogens. However, they partly overlap, e.g. mineralocorticoids and glucocorticoids. White circles indicate changes in molecular structure compared with precursors. Where stereochemistry is not shown, it is the same as for or for any functional groups shown for the first time. HSD: Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase References: Walter F. Boron, Emile L. Boulpaep (2003). Medical Physiology: A Cellular And Molecular Approach, page 1300, Elsevier/Saunders. Polski: Enzymy biorące udział w steroidogenezie. Uwagi: W miejscu gdzie stereochemia nie jest wyświetlana, jest taka sama jak dla Cholesterol lub w pokazanej powyżej grupie. HSD: Dehydrogenaza hydroksysteroidu Русский: Ферменты, участвующие в стероидогенезе человека, с указанием субстратов и продуктов, а также локализации их активности. Происходящие изменения в структуре молекул отмечены белыми кружочками. По сборнику "Медицинская физиология" (Walter F. Boron, Emile L. Boulpaep, 2003 год).
