背景
Aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C3 (AKR1C3) is a ~36 kDa protein. Cytosolic aldo-keto reductase that catalyzes NADPH-dependent reduction of ketosteroids to hydroxysteroids. Displays broad substrate specificity with distinct positional and stereochemistry, primarily generating 17beta-hydroxysteroids, but also 3alpha- and 20alpha-hydroxysteroids. Produces potent androgens via classical and 'backdoor'/alternative pathways. In the classical androgen metabolic pathway (biosynthesis of 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone (5alpha-DHT) via testosterone), catalyzes the reduction of delta4-androstenedione to form testosterone. In the 'backdoor' androgen metabolic pathway (biosynthesis of 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone (5alpha-DHT) via pregnanes), reduces androsterone to 5alpha-androstane-3alpha,17beta-diol preceding 5alpha-DHT secretion.
