QuickView for ALDH1B1 (gene)
- Gene Symbol:
- ALDH1B1
Homo sapiens - Full name:
- aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 family member B1
- Synonyms:
- ALDH5, ALDHX, aldehyde dehydrogenase X, mitochondrial, ALDH class 2, acetaldehyde dehydrogenase 5, aldehyde dehydrogenase 5
- Genomic Location:
- Chr 9: 38382702-38388658
- Description:
-
This protein belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenases family of proteins. Aldehyde dehydrogenase is the second enzyme of the major oxidative pathway of alcohol metabolism. This gene does not contain introns in the coding sequence. The variation of this locus may affect the development of alcohol-related problems.
