Protein Structure

UniProt Annotation

Function

Catalyzes reversibly the conversion of cortisol to the inactive metabolite cortisone. Catalyzes reversibly the conversion of 7-ketocholesterol to 7-beta-hydroxycholesterol. In intact cells, the reaction runs only in one direction, from 7- ketocholesterol to 7-beta-hydroxycholesterol (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.

Subcellular Localization

Endoplasmic reticulum membrane {ECO:0000269PubMed:10497248}; Single-pass type II membrane protein {ECO:0000269PubMed:10497248}.

Disease Associations

Cortisone reductase deficiency (CRD) [MIM:604931]: In CRD, activation of cortisone to cortisol does not occur, resulting in adrenocorticotropin-mediated androgen excess and a phenotype resembling polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Tissue Specificity

Widely expressed. Highest expression in liver.
