Aldehyde dehydrogenase is a polymorphic enzyme [3] responsible for the oxidation of aldehydes to carboxylic acids. [3] There are three different classes of these enzymes in mammals: class 1 (low K m, cytosolic), class 2 (low K m, mitochondrial), and class 3 (high K m, such as those expressed in tumors, stomach, and cornea). In all three classes ...
ALDH3A1's catalytic mechanism mirrors that of other enzymes of the aldehyde dehydrogenase family. The sulfur atom of Cys244 attacks the carbonyl of the aldehyde substrate in a nucleophilic attack that releases a hydride ion. The hydride ion is accepted by the NAD(P)+ bound to the Rossmann fold.
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of subfamily 7 in the aldehyde dehydrogenase gene family. These enzymes are thought to play a major role in the detoxification of aldehydes generated by alcohol metabolism and lipid peroxidation. This particular member has homology to a previously described protein from the green garden pea, the 26g ...
Aldehyde dehydrogenase, mitochondrial is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ALDH2 gene located on chromosome 12. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] ALDH2 belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenase family of enzymes. Aldehyde dehydrogenase is the second enzyme of the major oxidative pathway of alcohol metabolism.
This enzyme is a mitochondrial matrix NAD-dependent dehydrogenase that catalyzes the second step of the proline degradation pathway, converting pyrroline-5-carboxylate to glutamate. Deficiency of this enzyme is associated with type II hyperprolinemia , an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by accumulation of delta-1-pyrroline-5 ...
Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 family, member L2 also known as ALDH1L2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ALDH1L2 gene. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] ALDH1L2 is the mitochondrial isoform of a similar enzyme, ALDH1L1 , which converts 10-formyltetrahydrofolate to tetrahydrofolate and carbon dioxide.

The aldehyde dehydrogenases are a family of isozymes that may play a major role in the detoxification of aldehydes generated by alcohol metabolism and lipid peroxidation. This particular gene spans about 20 kb of genomic DNA and is composed of 9 coding exons.
