About this item
Aldo-Keto Reductase 1C4/AKR1C4 is a member of the aldo/keto reductase family that consists of more than 40 known enzymes and proteins. AKR1C4 has highly expressed in Liver. It can catalyses the bioreduction of chlordecone, a toxic organochlorine pesticide, to chlordecone alcohol in liver. AKR1C4 catalyses the transformation of the potent androgen dihydrotestosterone (DHT) into the less active form, 5- alpha-Androstan-3- alpha,17- beta -diol (3- alpha-diol). In addition, AKR1C4 also has some 20- alpha-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase activity.
Fusion-Tag: N-6 His tag
