About Aldh8a1

Summary

Enables retinal dehydrogenase activity. Acts upstream of or within 9-cis-retinoic acid biosynthetic process. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Is expressed in cochlea; inner ear; inner ear vestibular component; liver; and liver lobe. Orthologous to human ALDH8A1 (aldehyde dehydrogenase 8 family member A1).
