Steroid-lactonase (EC 3.1.1.37) is an enzyme that catalyzes the reaction
testololactone
H2O
testolic acid
The enzyme characterised from Cephalosporium acremonium hydrolyses the steroid, testololactone, to testolic acid.[1][2]
This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on carboxylic ester bonds. The systematic name testololactone lactonohydrolase.[3]
