1. Progesterone inhibited D-amino acid oxidase (D-amino acid : O2 oxidoreductase (deaminating), EC 1.4.3.3) in competition with its substrate, D-alanine. Binding of progesterone brought about the increase in both fluorescence intensity and fluorescence polarization of FAD, which indicates that the environment surrounding FAD chromophore is modified due to a conformational change in the apoenzyme. 2. Ethinyl estradiol, testosterone, testosterone propionate, corticosterone and aldosterone also inhibited the enzyme slightly in the same manner. Their binding also produced a slight increase in FAD fluorescence without decreasing the fluorescence polarization. 3. Cholesterol did not inhibit the enzyme, though it increased the fluorescence polarization of FAD. This indicates the binding of cholesterol with the enzyme at a site other than the substrate binding site.
