Description
ALDH6A1 an enzymethat in humans is encoded by the ALDH6A1 gene. This protein belongs to thealdehyde dehydrogenases family of proteins. This enzyme plays a role in thevaline and pyrimidine catabolic pathways. The product of this gene, amitochondrial methylmalonate semialdehyde dehydrogenase, catalyzes theirreversible oxidative decarboxylation of malonate and methylmalonatesemialdehydes to acetyl- and propionyl-CoA
