ABSTRACT:
Transformed yeasts with yeast expression plasmid containing yeast alcohol dehydrogenase promoter and bovine adrenocortical cytochrome P-450.sub.17.alpha. cDNA, which produce bovine adrenocortical cytochrome P-450.sub.17.alpha., and processes for producing 17-hydroxypregnenolone and 17-hydroxyprogesterone which comprises 17-hydroxylating pregnenolone or progesterone to 17-hydroxypregnenolone or 17-hydroxyprogesterone, respectively, with the said transformed yeasts.
