AKR1C4, His

Alternative Names: Aldo-keto reductase family 1 member C4 (chlordecone reductase 3-alpha hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type I dihydrodiol dehydrogenase 4), 3-alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type I, MGC22581, HAKRA, 3 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase/dihydrodiol dehydrogenase 4, CDR, DD4, CHDR, 3-alpha-HSD1, C11.

AKR1C4, a member of the aldo/keto reductase superfamily, is involved in converting aldehydes and ketones to alcohols with the help of NADH and/or NADPH as cofactors. Specifically, AKR1C4 plays a role in reducing chlordecone, a toxic pesticide, to chlordecone alcohol in the liver.

Storage Instruction

Reconstituted store at -20°C or -80°C.We recommend that single use aliquots are prepared to avoid freeze-thaw cycles.

Sample Prep Instruction

1. Thaw the vial on ice, spin briefly
2. Prepare single-use or stock aliquots. This stage will depend on your final application so please adapt as appropriate. All our proteins are supplied carrier protein-free. If compatible with your work and you are storing at lower concentrations (<50 ug/ml) adding carrier protein is highly advised (usually 1% w/v high purity BSA or equivalent – ensure all buffers are sterile-filtered).
3. Prepare single-use aliquots whenever possible to avoid freeze-thaw cycles which can damage the proteins and reduce bioactivity. Store aliquots at -70 °C (or -20 °C)
4. We recommend sterile filtering after dilution in media or the final working solution
