Description
3-alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase that converts 3-alpha-tetrahydroprogesterone (allopregnanolone) to dihydroxyprogesterone and 3-alpha-androstanediol to dihydroxyprogesterone. Plays also a role in the biosynthesis of retinoic acid from retinaldehyde. Can utilize both NADH and NADPH.
Family
Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.
