Hsd17b12 - hydroxysteroid (17-beta) dehydrogenase 12

Predicted to enable several functions, including fibronectin binding activity; heparin binding activity; and long-chain-3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase activity. Predicted to be involved in estrogen biosynthetic process and fatty acid biosynthetic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within extracellular matrix organization and positive regulation of cell-substrate adhesion. Predicted to be located in extracellular matrix. Predicted to be part of fatty acid elongase complex. Predicted to be active in endoplasmic reticulum. Orthologous to human HSD17B12 (hydroxysteroid 17-beta dehydrogenase 12).
