AKR1C2 antibody
Mouse anti Human AKR1C2 antibody recognizes the aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C2, also known as 3-alpha-HSD3, DD-2, DD/BABP, aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C2, chlordecone reductase homolog HAKRD, dihydrodiol dehydrogenase 2, bile acid binding protein, 3-alpha hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, type III, pseudo-chlordecone reductase, testicular 17,20-desmolase deficiency, trans-1,2-dihydrobenzene-1,2-diol dehydrogenase and type II dihydrodiol dehydrogenase.
Encoded by the AKR1C2 gene, aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C2 is a member of the aldo/keto reductase superfamily, which consists of more than 40 known enzymes and proteins. These enzymes catalyze the conversion of aldehydes and ketones to their corresponding alcohols using NADH and/or NADPH as cofactors. The enzymes display overlapping but distinct substrate specificity. This enzyme binds bile acid with high affinity, and shows minimal 3-alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activity. AKR1C2 shares high sequence identity with three other gene members and is clustered with those three genes at chromosome 10p15-p14. Three transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for AKR1C2 (provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011).
Mouse anti Human AKR1C2 antibody detects a band of 36 kDa. The antibody has been extensively validated for western blotting using whole cell lysates.
