Anti-SRD5A1 Antibody Picoband® (Dylight488 Conjugate)

3-oxo-5α-steroid 4-dehydrogenase 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the SRD5A1 gene. It is one of three forms of steroid 5α-reductase. The 3-oxo-5α-steroid 4-dehydrogenase 1 enzyme is involved in bile acid biosynthesis, androgen and estrogen metabolism. For instance, the enzyme catalyzes the conversion of testosterone into the more potent androgen, 5α-dihydrotestosterone. It can also catalyze the conversion of progesterone, corticosterone or other steroids, to its corresponding 5α-3-oxo-steroids. This chemical reaction is called 5α-reduction, i.e. the reduction of the Δ5-4 double bond in steroids by catalyzing hydride transfer from NADPH to the carbon 5 position of the steroid substrate.

Methyl-CpG-binding domain protein 4; Methyl-CpG-binding endonuclease 1; Methyl-CpG-binding protein MBD4; Mismatch-specific DNA N-glycosylase; MBD4; MED1

Mismatch-specific DNA N-glycosylase involved in DNA repair. Has thymine glycosylase activity and is specific for G:T mismatches within methylated and unmethylated CpG sites. Can also remove uracil or 5-fluorouracil in G:U mismatches. Has no lyase activity. Was first identified as methyl-CpG-binding protein.
