Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.4.0)
Enables 3-keto sterol reductase activity; 5alpha-androstane-3beta,17beta-diol dehydrogenase activity; and estradiol 17-beta-dehydrogenase [NAD(P)+] activity. Involved in several processes, including androgen metabolic process; embryonic organ development; and estrogen biosynthetic process. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cholesterol biosynthetic process; embryonic skeletal system development; and nervous system development. Located in endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including autopod; extraembryonic component; eye; nervous system; and reproductive system. Orthologous to human HSD17B7 (hydroxysteroid 17-beta dehydrogenase 7).
