Aldehyde dehydrogenase (NAD(P))

Names

[ Name ]:
Aldehyde dehydrogenase (NAD(P))

[Synonym ]:
EINECS 232-846-3

Biological Activity

[Description]:

Aldehyde dehydrogenase NAD(P) (ALDH) catalyzes the oxidation of aldehydes into their corresponding carboxylic acids with the concomitant reduction of the cofactor NAD(P) into NAD(P)H, is often used in biochemical studies. The aldehyde dehydrogenases (ALDHs) are one of many enzyme systems the body utilizes to alleviate aldehyde stress[1].
