Akr1c2 - aldo-keto reductase family 1, member C2

Predicted to enable several functions, including NADP binding activity; oxidoreductase activity, acting on paired donors, with incorporation or reduction of molecular oxygen, NAD(P)H as one donor, and incorporation of one atom of oxygen; and steroid dehydrogenase activity, acting on the CH-OH group of donors, NAD or NADP as acceptor. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including cellular response to hormone stimulus; glycoside metabolic process; and positive regulation of protein kinase B signaling. Predicted to be active in cytosol. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in 46,XY sex reversal 8. Orthologous to human AKR1C2 (aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C2).
