Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
KARSDR12C1
Chromosome 11
Chromosome location 11p11.2
Summary This gene encodes a very important 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (17beta-HSD) that converts estrone into estradiol in ovarian tissue. This enzyme is also involved in fatty acid elongation. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]

Protein name Very-long-chain 3-oxoacyl-CoA reductase (EC 1.1.1.330) (17-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 12) (17-beta-HSD 12) (3-ketoacyl-CoA reductase) (KAR) (Estradiol 17-beta-dehydrogenase 12) (EC 1.1.1.62) (Short chain dehydrogenase/reductase family 12C member 1)
Protein function Catalyzes the second of the four reactions of the long-chain fatty acids elongation cycle. This endoplasmic reticulum-bound enzymatic process, allows the addition of two carbons to the chain of long- and very long-chain fatty acids/VLCFAs per cy
