Summary: Enables 17-alpha,20-alpha-dihydroxypregn-4-en-3-one dehydrogenase activity and aldose reductase (NADPH) activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to follicle-stimulating hormone stimulus; cellular response to ketone; and cellular response to peptide hormone stimulus. Acts upstream of or within progesterone metabolic process. Located in cytosol. Biomarker of polycystic ovary syndrome and pre-eclampsia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in B-lymphoblastic leukemia/lymphoma; T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia; and leukemia. Orthologous to human AKR1C3 (aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
