Function

Catalyzes the NADPH-dependent reduction of a wide variety of carbonyl-containing compounds to their corresponding alcohols (PubMed:12732097, PubMed:18087047, PubMed:19013440, PubMed:19563777, PubMed:9565553). Displays strong enzymatic activity toward all-trans-retinal, 9-cis-retinal, and 13-cis-retinal (PubMed:12732097, PubMed:18087047). Plays a critical role in detoxifying dietary and lipid-derived unsaturated carbonyls, such as crotonaldehyde, 4-hydroxynonenal, trans-2-hexenal, trans-2,4-hexadienal and their glutathione-conjugates carbonyls (GS-carbonyls) (PubMed:19013440, PubMed:19563777). Displays no reductase activity towards glucose (PubMed:12732097).

Notes

While the standard is the same as the one provided in the corresponding SimpleStep ELISA Kit, it cannot be treated as the consumable provided with our SimpleStep ELISA Kit due to differences in its concentration calibration.

Abcam guarantee that this protein standard is suitable for use in a sandwich ELISA. Individual results may vary due to differences in technique, laboratory equipment, buffers, and other experimental factors. The detection range provided for this protein standard is based on initial sandwich ELISA validation data.

The protein concentration is the concentration after validation on our sandwich ELISA platform. This Standard protein is guaranteed to work with our Capture and Detector antibodies in sELISA. Please contact our Scientific Supportteam to know which antibody pair is suitable for this protein.

Activity summary

Aldo-keto reductase family 1 member B10 (AKR1B10) also known as ARL-1 (aldo-keto reductase-like-1) is an enzyme encoded by the AKR1B10 gene. The enzyme has a molecular weight of approximately 36 kDa. It is mainly expressed in the liver gastrointestinal tract and to a lesser extent in the lung and adrenal gland. As an enzyme AKR1B10 catalyzes the reduction of carbonyl groups to their corresponding alcohols using NADPH as a cofactor. This function plays a role in the detoxification of aldehydes and ketones.

Biological function summary

AKR1B10 protects cells from disorders caused by toxic aldehydes. It is important in lipid biosynthesis through the reduction of retinaldehyde to retinol which is part of the retinoic acid metabolism. AKR1B10 forms part of the aldo-keto reductase superfamily consisting of multiple related enzymes that regulate various cellular processes. This enzyme class is involved in stabilizing the oxidoreduction balance within cells.

Pathways

AKR1B10 engages in lipid metabolism and the protection against oxidative stress. It is an important player in the retinoid metabolism and signaling pathway where it collaborates with enzymes like retinaldehyde dehydrogenase. Additionally AKR1B10 is involved in the polyol pathway although its exact role here continues to be studied. The enzyme's relationship with NADPH suggests it could intersect with systems managing cellular responses to oxidative stress.

Associated diseases and disorders

AKR1B10 is associated with certain cancers and complications related to chronic alcohol consumption. Overexpression of AKR1B10 has been linked to hepatocellular carcinoma where it possibly collaborates with proteins like the carcinogenic beta-catenin pathway. Furthermore it plays a part in promoting resistance to chemotherapeutic drugs due to its detoxification role. In liver diseases caused by alcohol AKR1B10 helps protect hepatocytes from oxidative and aldehyde stress with aldehyde dehydrogenase being another involved enzyme in these processes.
