Rabbit anti-Human ALDH9A1 Polyclonal Antibody

Uniprot Id

P49189

Target Species

Human

Target Name

ALDH9A1

Target Full Name

4-trimethylaminobutyraldehyde dehydrogenase

Target Function

Converts gamma-trimethylaminobutyraldehyde into gamma-butyrobetaine with high efficiency (in vitro). Can catalyze the irreversible oxidation of a broad range of aldehydes to the corresponding acids in an NAD-dependent reaction, but with low efficiency.

Target Subcellular Location

Cytoplasm, cytosol.

Target Protein Families

Aldehyde dehydrogenase family

Target Tissue Specificity

Detected in brain (at protein level). High expression in adult liver, skeletal muscle, and kidney. Low levels in heart, pancreas, lung and brain. Expressed in all regions of the brain. Expression levels are variable in the different brain areas, with the

Target Background

This protein belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenase family of proteins. It has a high activity for oxidation of gamma-aminobutyraldehyde and other amino aldehydes. The enzyme catalyzes the dehydrogenation of gamma-aminobutyraldehyde to gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). This isozyme is a tetramer of identical 54-kD subunits.
