NCIt definition : Carbonyl reductase [NADPH] 1 (277 aa, 30 kDa) is encoded by the human CBR1 gene.
This protein plays a role in the reduction of carbonyl compounds.;
NCIt note : Carbonyl reductase [NADPH] 1 substrates include quinones, prostaglandins, and menadione.
Additionally, this enzyme catalyzes the reduction of the antitumor anthracyclines
doxorubicin and daunorubicin to the cardiotoxic compounds doxorubicinol and daunorubicinol.
