Background
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family, which function as NADPH-dependent oxidoreductases having wide specificity for carbonyl compounds, such as quinones, prostaglandins, and various xenobiotics. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2013],catalytic activity:(13E)-(15S)-11-alpha,15-dihydroxy-9-oxoprost-13-enoate + NADP(+) = (13E)-11-alpha-hydroxy-9,15-dioxoprost-13-enoate + NADPH.,catalytic activity:(5Z,13E)-(15S)-9-alpha,11-alpha,15-trihydroxyprosta-5,13-dienoate + NADP(+) = (5Z,13E)-(15S)-11-alpha,15-dihydroxy-9-oxoprosta-5,13-dienoate + NADPH.,catalytic activity:R-CHOH-R' + NADP(+) = R-CO-R' + NADPH.,function:Catalyzes the reduction of a wide variety of carbonyl compounds including the antitumor anthracycline antibiotics. Can convert prostaglandin E2 to prostaglandin F2-alpha.,similarity:Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.,subunit:Monomer.,
