Anti-HSD17B10

This gene encodes 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase type II, a member of the short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase superfamily. The gene product is a mitochondrial protein that catalyzes the oxidation of a wide variety of fatty acids and steroids, and is a subunit of mitochondrial ribonuclease P, which is involved in tRNA maturation. The protein has been implicated in the development of Alzheimer disease, and mutations in the gene are the cause of 17beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 10 (HSD10) deficiency. Several alternatively spliced transcript variants have been identified, but the full-length nature of only two transcript variants has been determined. Protein function: Mitochondrial dehydrogenase that catalyzes the beta- oxidation at position 17 of androgens and estrogens and has 3- alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activity with androsterone (PubMed:9553139, PubMed:23042678, PubMed:12917011, PubMed:18996107, PubMed:25925575, PubMed:28888424). Catalyzes the third step in the beta-oxidation of fatty acids (PubMed:9553139, PubMed:12917011, PubMed:18996107, PubMed:25925575, PubMed:28888424). Carries out oxidative conversions of 7-alpha-OH and 7-beta-OH bile acids (PubMed:12917011). Also exhibits 20-beta- OH and 21-OH dehydrogenase activities with C21 steroids (PubMed:12917011). By interacting with intracellular amyloid-beta, it may contribute to the neuronal dysfunction associated with Alzheimer disease (AD) (PubMed:9338779). Essential for structural and functional integrity of mitochondria (PubMed:20077426). [The UniProt Consortium]
