Aldo-keto reductases, such as AKR7A2, are involved in the detoxification of aldehydes and ketones. This protein can reduce the dialdehyde protein-binding form of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) to the nonbinding AFB1 dialcohol. It may be involved in protection of liver against the toxic and carcinogenic effects of AFB1, a potent hepatocarcinogen. Also, it has been proposed previously to catalyze the NADPH-dependent reduction of succinic semialdehyde (SSA) to gamma-Hydroxybutyrate in human brain. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa1-359 from human AKR7A2, fused to His-tag at N-terminal expressed in E. coli. Molecular Weight: ~44kD (398aa) Specific Activity: >300pmol/min/ug Unit Defintion: Defined as the amount of enzyme that catalyze the reduction 1pmole of 1,2-Naphthoquinone presence of NADPH/minute with pH 7.0 at 25C.
