Entrez ID 8630
Gene name Hydroxysteroid 17-beta dehydrogenase 6
Gene symbol HSD17B6
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
HSERODHSDR9C6
Chromosome 12
Chromosome location 12q13.3
Summary The protein encoded by this gene has both oxidoreductase and epimerase activities and is involved in androgen catabolism. The oxidoreductase activity can convert 3 alpha-adiol to dihydrotestosterone, while the epimerase activity can convert androsterone t
