Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.3.0)
Predicted to enable 3-beta-hydroxy-Delta5-steroid dehydrogenase (NAD+) activity; steroid Delta-isomerase activity; and steroid binding activity. Predicted to be involved in C21-steroid hormone metabolic process and steroid biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including ciliary transition zone; intercellular bridge; and mitochondrial envelope. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; eye; heart; integumental system; and nervous system. 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).
