  2. 5 alpha Reductase
  3. 5α-reductase, Rat(Sprague-Dawley) Liver

5α-reductase, Rat (Sprague-Dawley) Liver is an enzyme involved in steroid metabolism and participates in the androgen metabolic pathway. 5α-reductase, Rat (Sprague-Dawley) Liver catalyzes the conversion of testosterone to 5α-dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT plays important roles in the development of male sex organs, hair growth, prostate function, and other aspects.

Description

5α-reductase, Rat (Sprague-Dawley) Liver is an enzyme involved in steroid metabolism and participates in the androgen metabolic pathway. 5α-reductase, Rat (Sprague-Dawley) Liver catalyzes the conversion of testosterone to 5α-dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT plays important roles in the development of male sex organs, hair growth, prostate function, and other aspects[1].

In Vitro

5α-reductase activity in adult female rat liver microsomes peaks at pH 5.5, has an apparent Km of ~2 μM for testosterone and ~200 μM for NADPH at pH 6.9, and shows no detectable reverse reaction (androstanolone to testosterone)[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
