Difference between 17β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and HSD17B3

17β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase vs. HSD17B3

17β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases (17β-HSD, HSD17B), also 17-ketosteroid reductases (17-KSR), are a group of alcohol oxidoreductases which catalyze the reduction of 17-ketosteroids and the dehydrogenation of 17β-hydroxysteroids in steroidogenesis and steroid metabolism. 17β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 3 (17β-HSD3) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the HSD17B3 gene and is involved in androgen steroidogenesis.

Similarities between 17β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and HSD17B3

17β-Hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and HSD17B3 have 3 things in common (in Unionpedia): Androstenedione, Steroid, Testosterone.

Androstenedione

Androstenedione, or 4-androstenedione (abbreviated as A4 or Δ4-dione), also known as androst-4-ene-3,17-dione, is an endogenous weak androgen steroid hormone and intermediate in the biosynthesis of estrone and of testosterone from dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA).
