In enzymology, a 3β-hydroxy-5α-steroid dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.278) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

3β-hydroxy-5α-pregnane-20-one + NADP {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } 5α-pregnan-3,20-dione + NADPH + H

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are 3β-hydroxy-5α-pregnane-20-one (allopregnanolone) and NADP, whereas its 3 products are 5α-pregnan-3,20-dione, NADPH, and H.

This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on the CH-OH group of donor with NAD or NADP as acceptor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 3β-hydroxy-5α-steroid:NADP 3-oxidoreductase.
