    Tandem mass spectrometry is a method of choice for rapid analysis in proteomics. Identification and characterization of proteins from organisms with sequenced genomes is today a routine procedure as ... will be identification of proteins from organisms with unsequenced genomes with new developing tools.Here, we report the use of isotopic labeling with electrospray ionisation (ESI)-tandem mass spectrometry for de novo sequencing in combination with database search taking advantage of different programs for identification of fungal proteins. Using this approach we could identify the proteins of interest. Nevertheless, the identification of a novel protein responsible for the conversion of testosterone into androstenedione was still a difficult task, mostly due to the low homology of steroid transforming enzymes, especially those from microorganisms. Protein p27 was identified as the vanillate O-demethylase oxidoreductase, p33 and p36 as two isoenzymes of malate dehydrogenase, and p45 as citrate synthase. By rechecking the sequencesusing additional programs it could be shown that the protein p36 has a higher local homology to the steroid-transforming enzyme than to the malate dehydrogenase. Therefore, we assume that p36 is a pluripotent enzyme most probably responsible for the 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activity.
