Comments
  • FUNCTION: Catalyzes the transformation of the potent androgen dihydrotestosterone (DHT) into the less active form, 5-alpha-androstan-3-alpha,17-beta-diol (3-alpha-diol). Also has some 20-alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activity. The biotransformation of the pesticide chlordecone (kepone) to its corresponding alcohol leads to increased biliary excretion of the pesticide and concomitant reduction of its neurotoxicity since bile is the major excretory route. Can oxidize both 3-alpha- and 20-alpha-hydroxysteroids with preference for 3-alpha-hydroxypreganes and 3-alpha-hydroxyandrostanes. Non-steroid substrates include R-tetralol and trans-benzene dihydroliol. Reduces both 3-ketoandrostanes and 3-ketopregnanes. Lower activity towards 20-ketopregnanes.
  • CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Chlordecone alcohol + NADP+ = chlordecone + NADPH.
  • CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Androsterone + NAD(P)+ = 5-alpha-androstane-3,17-dione + NAD(P)H.
  • ENZYME REGULATION: Potently inhibited by benzbromarone, 3',3", 5', 5"-tetrabromophenolphthalein (TBPP) and o-cresolphthalein.
  • SUBUNIT: Monomer (By similarity).
  • SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm (By similarity).
  • TISSUE SPECIFICITY: High expression in liver. Also expressed in kidney.
  • SIMILARITY: Belongs to the aldo/keto reductase family.
