免疫原
Synthesized peptide derived from part region of human protein
特异性
S5A1 Monoclonal Antibody detects endogenous levels of protein.
组成
Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, and 0.02% sodium azide.

The antibody was affinity-purified from mouse antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen.
背景
Steroid 5-alpha-reductase (EC 1.3.99.5) catalyzes the conversion of testosterone into the more potent androgen, dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Also see SRD5A2 (MIM 607306).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008],
功能
catalytic activity:A 3-oxo-5-alpha-steroid + acceptor = a 3-oxo-Delta(4)-steroid + reduced acceptor.,function:Converts testosterone into 5-alpha-dihydrotestosterone and progesterone or corticosterone into their corresponding 5-alpha-3-oxosteroids. It plays a central role in sexual differentiation and androgen physiology.,induction:Its expression is regulated by androgens such as testosterone.,online information:5-alpha reductase entry,similarity:Belongs to the steroid 5-alpha reductase family.,tissue specificity:Liver and prostate (at a low level).,
