AKR1C4

SYNONYMS
Aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C4 (chlordecone reductase 3-alpha hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type I dihydrodiol dehydrogenase 4), 3-alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type I, MGC22581, HAKRA, 3 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/dihydrodiol dehydrogenase 4, CDR, DD4, CHDR, 3-alpha-HSD1, C11.

INTRODUCTION
Aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C4  or AKR1C4 is a part of the aldo/keto reductase superfamily that has more then 40 known proteins & enzymes. AKR1C4 catalyzes the conversion of aldehydes and ketones to their corresponding alcohols with NADH and/or NADPH as cofactors. AKR1C4 takes place in the bioreduction of chlordecone, a toxic organochlorine pesticide, to chlordecone alcohol in the liver tissue.

DESCRIPTION
AKR1C4 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 323 amino acids (1-323aa ) and having a molecular mass of  37kDa.
