Full name:

hydroxy-delta-5-steroid dehydrogenase, 3 beta- and steroid delta-isomerase 1

Synonyms:

3BETAHSD, HSD3B, HSDB3, HSDB3A, I, SDR11E1, 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/Delta 5-->4-isomerase type 1, 3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/Delta 5-->4-isomerase type I, 3-beta-HSD I, 3-beta-hydroxy-5-ene steroid dehydrogenase, 3-beta-hydroxy-Delta(5)-steroid dehydrogenase, delta-5-3-ketosteroid isomerase, progesterone reductase, short chain dehydrogenase/reductase family 11E, member 1, steroid Delta-isomerase, trophoblast antigen FDO161G

Genomic Location:

Chr 1: 119851349-119859204

Description:

The protein encoded by this gene is an enzyme that catalyzes the oxidative conversion of delta-5-3-beta-hydroxysteroid precursors into delta-4-ketosteroids, which leads to the production of all classes of steroid hormones. The encoded protein also catalyzes the interconversion of 3-beta-hydroxy- and 3-keto-5-alpha-androstane steroids.
