Is expressed in several structures, including endocrine gland; genitourinary system; liver; nervous system; and respiratory system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypertension and hypospadias. Orthologous to human HSD3B1 (hydroxy-delta-5-steroid dehydrogenase, 3 beta- and steroid delta-isomerase 1) and HSD3B2 (hydroxy-delta-5-steroid dehydrogenase, 3 beta- and steroid delta-isomerase 2).
