Recombinant Human AKR1C4 Protein, GST-tagged

• Cat.No.: AKR1C4-414H
• Product Overview: Human AKR1C4 full-length ORF ( AAH20744, 1 a.a. - 323 a.a.) recombinant protein with GST-tag at N-terminal.

Specification

• Description: 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]
