Metabolism
products description :
The human aldo-keto reductases 1C1 and 1C3 (AKR1C1 and AKR1C3) have major roles in pre receptor regulation of progesterone action. They can both convert progesterone to the less potent efficiencies. AKR1C1 and AKR1C3 also act as 3-ketosteroid reductase, and as such they can convert the most potent androgen 5alpha-DHT into 3beta-andorstandiol, which is an estrogen receptor beta ligand, and into the inactive androgen 3alpha-androstnionl, respectively.

ncbi summary :
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 reaction of progesterone to the inactive form 20-alpha-hydroxy-progesterone. This gene shares high sequence identity with three other gene members and is clustered with those three genes at chromosome 10p15-p14. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
uniprot summary :
AKR1C1: Converts progesterone to its inactive form, 20-alpha- dihydroxyprogesterone (20-alpha-OHP). In the liver and intestine, may have a role in the transport of bile. May have a role in monitoring the intrahepatic bile acid concentration. Has a low bile-binding ability. May play a role in myelin formation. Belongs to the aldo/keto reductase family.
