Structure of human type II 5 alpha-reductase gene.

1 Sept 1992

Abstract excerpt

The best known activity of steroid 5 alpha-reductase is the transformation of testosterone into dihydrotestosterone, the most potent androgen. Two types of human steroid 5 alpha-reductase cDNAs and the type I gene have previously been isolated and characterized. This report describes the isolation and characterization of the human type II 5 alpha-reductase gene, the gene most likely responsible for male...
