Query author contributions in Reactome

Reactome depends on collaboration between our curation team and outside experts to assemble and peer-review its pathway modules. The integration of ORCID within Reactome enables us to meet a key challenge with authoring, curating and reviewing biological information by incentivizing and crediting the external experts that contribute their expertise and time to the Reactome curation process. More information is available at ORCID and Reactome.

If you have an ORCID ID that is not listed on this page, please forward this information to us and we will update your Reactome pathway records.

commentFUNCTION Favors the reduction of estrogens and androgens. Converts estrone (E1) to a more potent estrogen, 17beta-estradiol (E2) (PubMed:8994190). Also has 20-alpha-HSD activity. Uses preferentially NADH.CATALYTIC ACTIVITY 17beta-estradiol + NAD(+) = estrone + NADH + H(+)CATALYTIC ACTIVITY 17beta-estradiol + NADP(+) = estrone + NADPH + H(+)CATALYTIC ACTIVITY testosterone + NADP(+) = androst-4-ene-3,17-dione + NADPH + H(+)BIOPHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES Steroid biosynthesis; estrogen biosynthesis.SUBUNIT Homodimer. Exists predominantly as a homodimer but also exits as monomer.INTERACTION Belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases (SDR) family.
