Vectors for Human ALAD

Gene Information

  • Offical Gene Symbol ALAD
  • Species Human (Homo sapiens)
  • Offical Full Name aminolevulinate dehydratase
  • Other Aliases ALADH; PBGS
  • Other Desigations delta-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase; aminolevulinate, delta-, dehydratase; porphobilinogen synthase; testicular tissue protein Li 95
  • Gene Type protein-coding
  • Summary
    The ALAD enzyme is composed of 8 identical subunits and catalyzes the condensation of 2 molecules of delta-aminolevulinate to form porphobilinogen (a precursor of heme, cytochromes and other hemoproteins). ALAD catalyzes the second step in the porphyrin and heme biosynthetic pathway; zinc is essential for enzymatic activity. ALAD enzymatic activity is inhibited by lead and a defect in the ALAD structural gene can cause increased sensitivity to lead poisoning and acute hepatic porphyria. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015]
