Recommended dilutions
WB: Use at a concentration of 1-5 µg/ml.

This antibody has only been tested in WB against the recombinant fragment used as immunogen. We have no data on the detection of endogenous protein.

Not yet tested in other applications.
Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Relevance 

AKR1C2 is a member of the aldo/keto reductase superfamily. It catalyzes the NADP-linked oxidation of trans-dihydrodiols of aromatic hydrocarbons to the corresponding catechols. AKR1C2 binds bile acid with high affinity, and shows minimal 3-alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase activity. It works in concert with the 5-alpha/5-beta-steroid reductases to convert steroid hormones into the 3-alpha/5-alpha and 3-alpha/5-beta-tetrahydrosteroids. It also catalyzes the inactivation of 5-alpha-dihydrotestosterone (5-alpha-DHT), the most potent androgen, to 5-alpha-androstane-3-alpha,17-beta-diol (3-alpha-diol).
