Description
Product Characteristics:
ALDH1B1 belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenases family of proteins. Aldehyde dehydrogenase is the second enzyme of the major oxidative pathway of alcohol metabolism. The ALDH1B1 gene does not contain introns in the coding sequence. The variation of this locus may affect the development of alcohol-related problems.
Synonyms: Aldehyde dehydrogenase 5, Acetaldehyde dehydrogenase 5, Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1B1, Aldehyde dehydrogenase family 1 member B1, Aldehyde dehydrogenase X mitochondrial, ALDH class 2, ALDH1B1, ALDH5, ALDHX, AL1B1_HUMAN, MGC2230, Mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase X, OTTHUMP00000021399.
