HSD3B7: Proteins and Enzymes

HSD3B7 codes for a protein with a length of 369 amino acids and a weight of approximately 41 kDa, with a shorter isoform with a length of 196 amino acids and a weight of approximately 21 kDa, and is a protein that plays a role in the biosynthesis of all classes of hormonal steroids, as it does not metabolize several different C steroids as substrates. It is also involved in bile acid synthesis from cholesterol. Current studies are being done on diseases and disorders relating to this gene ...
