About ALDH1L2

Cytogenetic location: 12q23.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 12:105,019,790-105,084,458 (from NCBI)

This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 211 orthologues and 17 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in pancreas (RPKM 5.6), salivary gland (RPKM 2.9) and 22 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of both the aldehyde dehydrogenase superfamily and the formyl transferase superfamily. This member is the mitochondrial form of 10-formyltetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase (FDH), which converts 10-formyltetrahydrofolate to tetrahydrofolate and CO2 in an NADP(+)-dependent reaction, and plays an essential role in the distribution of one-carbon groups between the cytosolic and mitochondrial compartments of the cell. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Oct 2010]
