- Background InformationAldo-keto reductases, such as AKR7A2, are involved in the detoxification of aldehydes and ketones. This protein can reduce the dialdehyde protein-binding form of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) to the nonbinding AFB1 dialcohol. It may be involved in protection of liver against the toxic and carcinogenic effects of AFB1, a potent hepatocarcinogen. Also, it has been proposed previously to catalyze the NADPH-dependent reduction of succinic semialdehyde (SSA) to Gamma-Hydroxybutyrate in human brain.
