About Akr1a1

Summary

Enables L-glucuronate reductase activity and glucuronolactone reductase activity. Involved in D-glucuronate catabolic process; L-ascorbic acid biosynthetic process; and cellular detoxification of aldehyde. Predicted to be located in apical plasma membrane. Predicted to be active in cytosol and synapse. Orthologous to human AKR1A1 (aldo-keto reductase family 1 member A1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
