About This Section
Entrez Gene summary for AKR1C4:
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 bioreduction of chlordecone, a toxic organochlorine pesticide, to chlordecone alcohol in liver. 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)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: AK1C4_HUMAN, P17516
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
