Summary
ALDH9A1 (aldehyde dehydrogenase 9 family member A1, HGNC:412) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 1q24.1, encoding 4-trimethylaminobutyraldehyde dehydrogenase (P49189). Converts gamma-trimethylaminobutyraldehyde into gamma-butyrobetaine with high efficiency (in vitro).
This protein belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenase family of proteins. It has a high activity for oxidation of gamma-aminobutyraldehyde and other amino aldehydes. The enzyme catalyzes the dehydrogenation of gamma-aminobutyraldehyde to gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). This isozyme is a tetramer of identical 54-kD subunits.

Function. Converts gamma-trimethylaminobutyraldehyde into gamma-butyrobetaine with high efficiency (in vitro). Can catalyze the irreversible oxidation of a broad range of aldehydes to the corresponding acids in an NAD-dependent reaction, but with low efficiency. Catalyzes the oxidation of aldehydes arising from biogenic amines and polyamines.
Subunit / interactions. Homotetramer.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Cytosol.
Tissue specificity. Detected in brain (at protein level). High expression in adult liver, skeletal muscle, and kidney. Low levels in heart, pancreas, lung and brain. Expressed in all regions of the brain. Expression levels are variable in the different brain areas, with the highest levels in the spinal cord and the lowest in the occipital pole.
Pathway. Amine and polyamine biosynthesis; carnitine biosynthesis.
Miscellaneous. Produced by alternative splicing. Produced by alternative initiation. Contains a predicted signal peptide at positions 1-24.
Similarity. Belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenase family.
