Function | Efficiently catalyzes the reduction of progesterone, androstenedione, 17-alpha-hydroxyprogesterone and testosterone to 5-beta-reduced metabolites. The bile acid intermediates 7- alpha,12-alpha-dihydroxy-4-cholesten-3-one and 7-alpha-hydroxy-4- cholesten-3-one can also act as substrates. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11342103}. |
Subcellular Location | Cytoplasm. |
Tissue Specificity | Highly expressed in liver. Expressed in testis and weakly in colon. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11342103}. |
