Identification
HMDB Protein ID CDBP04068
Secondary Accession Numbers Not Available
Name Aldehyde dehydrogenase family 8 member A1
Description Not Available
Synonyms
  1. Aldehyde dehydrogenase 12
Gene Name ALDH8A1
Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in oxidoreductase activity
Specific Function Converts 9-cis-retinal to 9-cis-retinoic acid. Has lower activity towards 13-cis-retinal. Has much lower activity towards all-trans-retinal. Has highest activity with benzaldehyde and decanal (in vitro). Has a preference for NAD, but shows considerable activity with NADP (in vitro)
