Summary
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the aldo/keto reductase (AKR) superfamily and AKR7 family, which are involved in the detoxification of aldehydes and ketones. The AKR7 family consists of 3 genes that are present in a cluster on the p arm of chromosome 1. This protein, thought to be localized in the golgi, catalyzes the NADPH-dependent reduction of succinic semialdehyde to the endogenous neuromodulator, gamma-hydroxybutyrate. It may also function as a detoxication enzyme in the reduction of aflatoxin B1 and 2-carboxybenzaldehyde. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2011]

Comments

Comment Type Description
Biophysicochemical Properties Kinetic parameters: KM=20 uM for succinic semialdehyde ; KM=17 uM for 2-carboxybenzaldehyde ; KM=8 uM for 9,10-phenanthrenequinone ; KM=102 uM for 1,2-naphthoquinone ;
Catalytic Activity 4-hydroxybutanoate + NADP(+) = succinate semialdehyde + NADPH.
Caution It is uncertain whether Met-1 or Met-30 is the initiator.
Function Catalyzes the NADPH-dependent reduction of succinic semialdehyde to gamma-hydroxybutyrate. May have an important role in producing the neuromodulator gamma-hydroxybutyrate (GHB). Has broad substrate specificity. Has NADPH-dependent aldehyde reductase activity towards 2-carboxybenzaldehyde, 2- nitrobenzaldehyde and pyridine-2-aldehyde (in vitro). Can reduce 1,2-naphthoquinone and 9,10-phenanthrenequinone (in vitro). Can reduce the dialdehyde protein-binding form of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) to the non-binding AFB1 dialcohol. May be involved in protection of liver against the toxic and carcinogenic effects of AFB1, a potent hepatocarcinogen. {ECO

Similarity Belongs to the aldo/keto reductase family. Aldo/keto reductase 2 subfamily.
Subcellular Location Golgi apparatus . Cytoplasm .
Subunit Homodimer. {ECO
Tissue Specificity Detected in brain, liver, small intestine and testis, and at lower levels in heart, prostate, skeletal muscle and spleen. Detected in kidney proximal and distal tubules, endothelial cells lining the Bowman's capsules and some cysts. Detected at low levels in lung and pancreas (at protein level). Widely expressed. {ECO
