Structure of human hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 8, HSD17B8Structure of human hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 8, HSD17B8
Structural highlights
Function[DHB8_HUMAN] NAD-dependent 17-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase with highest activity towards estradiol. Has very low activity towards testosterone. The heteroteramer with CBR4 has NADH-dependent 3-ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein reductase activity. May play a role in biosynthesis of fatty acids in mitochondria.[1] [2] Evolutionary Conservation![]() Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.
