Tissue Specificity | Expressed in high levels in the prostate and many other androgen-sensitive tissues. |
Post Translational Modifications | |
Function | Converts testosterone (T) into 5-alpha-dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and progesterone or corticosterone into their corresponding 5-alpha-3-oxosteroids. It plays a central role in sexual differentiation and androgen physiology. |
