Target
| Function | ALDHs play a major role in the detoxification of alcohol-derived acetaldehyde. They are involved in the metabolism of corticosteroids, biogenic amines, neurotransmitters, and lipid peroxidation. This protein preferentially oxidizes aromatic aldehyde substrates. It may play a role in the oxidation of toxic aldehydes. |
| Tissue Specificity | High levels in stomach, esophagus and lung; low level in the liver and kidney. |
| Sequence Similarities | Belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenase family. |
| Cellular Localization | Cytoplasm. |
Storage & Handling
