Extra Details:
Aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C3 (AKR1C3); also known as 17β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 5 (17β-HSD5; HSD17B5) is a key steroidogenic enzyme that in humans is encoded by the AKR1C3 gene. It is mapped to 10p15.1. This gene encodes a member of the aldo/keto reductase superfamily; which consists of more than 40 known enzymes and proteins. These enzymes catalyze the conversion of aldehydes and ketones to their corresponding alcohols by utilizing NADH and/or NADPH as cofactors. The enzymes display overlapping but distinct substrate specificity. This enzyme catalyzes the reduction of prostaglandin (PG) D2; PGH2 and phenanthrenequinone (PQ); and the oxidation of 9alpha;11beta-PGF2 to PGD2. It may play an important role in the pathogenesis of allergic diseases such as asthma; and may also have a role in controlling cell growth and/or differentiation. This gene shares high sequence identity with three other gene members and is clustered with those three genes at chromosome 10p15-p14. Three transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
