About ALDH5A1

Cytogenetic location: 6p22.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 6:24,494,969-24,537,207 (from NCBI)

This gene has 10 transcripts (splice variants), 211 orthologues, 17 paralogues and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in liver (RPKM 26.0), brain (RPKM 18.3) and 23 other tissues.

Summary

This protein belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenase family of proteins. This gene encodes a mitochondrial NAD(+)-dependent succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase. A deficiency of this Enzyme, known as 4-hydroxybutyricaciduria, is a rare inborn error in the metabolism of the neurotransmitter 4-aminobutyric acid (GABA). In response to the defect, physiologic fluids from patients accumulate GHB, a compound with numerous neuromodulatory properties. Two transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
