Source: NCBI Gene (ID 15486)
Symbol: Hsd17b2
Full name: hydroxysteroid (17-beta) dehydrogenase 2
Gene type: protein coding
RefSeq status: VALIDATED
Organism: Mus musculus
Summary: Predicted to enable estradiol 17-beta-dehydrogenase activity and testosterone dehydrogenase (NAD+) activity. Acts upstream of or within in utero embryonic development and placenta development. Predicted to be located in intracellular membrane-bounded organelle. Is expressed in several structures, including adrenal gland; genitourinary system; gut; liver; and retina. Orthologous to human HSD17B2 (hydroxysteroid 17-beta dehydrogenase 2).
