| Background | Aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C4 (AKR1C4) is a ~37 kDa protein. Cytosolic aldo-keto reductase that catalyzes NADPH-dependent reduction of ketosteroids to hydroxysteroids. Displays broad substrate specificity with distinct positional and stereochemistry, primarily generating 3alpha/beta-, 17beta- and 20alpha-hydroxysteroids. Required for male sex determination as a component of the 'backdoor' androgen biosynthesis pathway that generates 5alpha-dihydrotestosterone (5alpha-DHT) via pregnanes. Acts together with AKR1C2 to convert 5alpha-dihydroprogesterone (5alpha-DHP) to 3alpha-hydroxy-5alpha-pregnan-20-one (3alpha,5alpha-THP/allopregnanolone), leading to 5alpha-DHT secretion necessary for embryonic gonad differentiation into testis. May regulate the concentrations of circulating neurosteroids. 1. Kume, T. et al. (1999) Pharmacogenetics 9, 763-71. PMID: 10634139 2. Penning, TM. et al. (2000) The Biochemical journal 351, 67-77.
