NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
In mice, the Ke6 protein is a 17-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase that can regulate the concentration of biologically active estrogens and androgens. It is preferentially an oxidative enzyme and inactivates estradiol, testosterone, and dihydrotestosterone. However, the enzyme has some reductive activity and can synthesize estradiol from estrone. The protein encoded by this gene is similar to Ke6 and is a member of the short-chain dehydrogenase superfamily. An alternatively spliced transcript of this gene has been detected, but the full-length nature of this variant has not been determined. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
HSD17B8: NAD-dependent 17-beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase with highest activity towards estradiol. Has very low activity towards testosterone. The heteroteramer with CBR4 has NADH-dependent 3- ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein reductase activity. May play a role in biosynthesis of fatty acids in mitochondria. Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.

Product Notes
The HSD17B8 hsd17b8 (Catalog #AAA6381743) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The HSD17B8 (Estradiol 17-beta-dehydrogenase 8, 17-beta-hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase 8, 17-beta-HSD 8, 3-oxoacyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] Reductase, Protein Ke6, Ke-6, Really Interesting New Gene 2 Protein, Testosterone 17-beta-dehydrogenase 8, FABGL, HKE6, RIN reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's HSD17B8 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Western Blot (WB). Applications are based on unconjugated antibody. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the HSD17B8 hsd17b8 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "HSD17B8, Polyclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
