Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.0.0)
Predicted to enable several functions, including ketosteroid monooxygenase activity; oxidoreductase activity, acting on the CH-OH group of donors, NAD or NADP as acceptor; and retinal dehydrogenase activity. Predicted to be involved in cellular response to jasmonic acid stimulus; glycoside metabolic process; and steroid metabolic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within xenobiotic metabolic process. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Is expressed in gut and liver lobe. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in 46,XY sex reversal 8. Orthologous to human AKR1C4 (aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C4).
