epitope corresponding to amino acids 231-373 mapping at the C-terminus of 3β-HSD type I of human origin
Modification Notes
3 beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3∫-HSD), also known as HSD3B1 or HSDB3, is a bifunctional enzyme that plays a crucial role in the synthesis of all classes of hormonal steroids. Two human 3∫-HSD proteins, designated type I (3∫-HSD) and type II (3∫-HSD2), are expressed by different genes and function in different areas of the body. Localized to the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and expressed in skin and placenta, 3∫-HSD is the type I protein that catalyzes the oxidative conversion of ∂5-ene-3-beta-hydroxy steroid, as well as the conversion of various ketosteroids. Defects in the gene encoding 3∫-HSD are associated with classic salt wasting, genital ambiguity, hypogonadism, insulin-resistant polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and an increased susceptibility to prostate cancer. Additionally, congenital deficiency of 3∫-HSD activity results in a severe depletion of steroid formation which can be lethal in young children.
