Reaction: 7β-hydroxy-3-oxochol-24-oyl-CoA + NAD+ = 7β-hydroxy-3-oxochol-4-en-24-oyl-CoA + NADH + H+
Other name(s): baiH (gene name)
Systematic name: 7β-hydroxy-3-oxochol-24-oyl-CoA Δ4-oxidoreductase
Comments: Contains FAD and FMN. The enzyme, characterized from the bacterium Clostridium scindens, participates in the bile acid 7α-dehydroxylation pathway. The enzyme catalyses the stereo-specific oxidation of its substrate and has no activity with the 7α anomer. cf. EC 1.3.1.115, 3-oxocholoyl-CoA 4-desaturase.
