Anti-Human DHRS11 Polyclonal Antibody

Dehydrogenase/reductase SDR family member 11 (DHRS11) is a ~28 kDa protein. Catalyzes the conversion of the 17-keto group of estrone, 4- and 5-androstenes and 5-alpha-androstanes into their 17-beta-hydroxyl metabolites and the conversion of the 3-keto group of 3-, 3,17- and 3,20- diketosteroids into their 3beta-hydroxyl metabolites. Exhibits reductive 3-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activity toward 5-beta-androstanes, 5-beta-pregnanes, 4-pregnenes and bile acids. May contribute to the metabolism of adrenal-derived androgen precursors. Reduces 11-keto-4-androstene-3,17-dione (11KA4) and 11-keto-5alpha-androstane-3,17-dione (11K-Adione) into potent androgens 11-ketotestosterone (11KT) and 11-ketodihydrotestosterone (11KDHT), respectively. May also reduce endogenous and exogenous alpha-dicarbonyl compounds and xenobiotic alicyclic ketones.
