Description

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

Gene Summary

Enables 3-beta-hydroxy-Delta5-steroid dehydrogenase (NAD+) activity and steroid binding activity. Involved in progesterone metabolic process; regulation of steroid biosynthetic process; and steroid biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane and mitochondrial membrane. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypertension and hypospadias. Orthologous to human HSD3B1 (hydroxy-delta-5-steroid dehydrogenase, 3 beta- and steroid delta-isomerase 1) and HSD3B2 (hydroxy-delta-5-steroid dehydrogenase, 3 beta- and steroid delta-isomerase 2).
