Vectors for Human ALDH8A1

Gene Information

  • Offical Gene Symbol ALDH8A1
  • Species Human (Homo sapiens)
  • Offical Full Name aldehyde dehydrogenase 8 family member A1
  • Other Aliases ALDH12; DJ352A20.2
  • Other Desigations 2-aminomuconic semialdehyde dehydrogenase; aldehyde dehydrogenase 12; aldehyde dehydrogenase family protein
  • Gene Type protein-coding
  • Summary
    This gene encodes a member of the aldehyde dehydrogenase family of proteins. The encoded protein has been implicated in the synthesis of 9-cis-retinoic acid and in the breakdown of the amino acid tryptophan. This enzyme converts 9-cis-retinal into the retinoid X receptor ligand 9-cis-retinoic acid, and has approximately 40-fold higher activity with 9-cis-retinal than with all-trans-retinal. In addition, this enzyme has been shown to catalyze the conversion of 2-aminomuconic semialdehyde to 2-aminomuconate in the kynurenine pathway of tryptophan catabolism. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2018]
