AKR1C4 is a member of the aldo/keto reductase superfamily that has over 40 known enzymes and proteins. AKR1C4 enables the conversion of aldehydes and ketones to their corresponding alcohols by using NADH and/or NADPH as cofactors. AKR1C4 takes part in the bioreduction of chlordecone, a toxic organochlorine pesticide, to chlordecone alcohol in liver. Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-323 from human AKR1C4, fused to His-tag at N-terminal, expressed in E. coli. Molecular Weight: ~39.2kD (343aa, aa1-323 + NT His Tag) Biological Activity: Specific activity is ~<0.6units/mg. Enzymatic activity was confirmed by measuring the amount of enzyme catalyzing the oxidation of 1 micromole NADPH/minute at 25C.
