physiological function | isoform 17beta-HSD3-dependent reduction of 4-androstene-3,17-dione is affected by neither coexpression with 11beta-HSD1, EC 1.1.1.146, nor overexpression or knock-down of hexose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase. Knock-down of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase decreases 17beta-HSD3 activity, indicating dependence on cytoplasmic NADPH. Cytoplasmic orientation of isoform 17beta-HSD3 and dependence on glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase-generated NADPH explain the lack of a direct functional coupling with the luminal 11beta-HSD1-mediated glucocorticoid metabolism | Homo sapiens |
