Summary

ALDH16A1 (aldehyde dehydrogenase 16 family member A1, HGNC:28114) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 19q13.33, encoding Aldehyde dehydrogenase family 16 member A1 (Q8IZ83).

This gene encodes a member of the aldehyde dehydrogenase superfamily. The family members act on aldehyde substrates and use nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) as a cofactor. This gene is conserved in chimpanzee, dog, cow, mouse, rat, and zebrafish. The protein encoded by this gene interacts with maspardin, a protein that when truncated is responsible for Mast syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.

Literature-anchored findings (GeneRIF, showing 2)

  • Data report that maspardin localizes prominently to cytoplasm as well as to membranes, possibly at trans-Golgi network/late endosomal compartments, and that maspardin interacts with the aldehyde dehydrogenase ALDH16A1. (PMID:19184135)
  • Both the short and long forms of human ALDH16A1 protein would lack catalytic activity. (PMID:23348497)
