Comments
Comment typeDescription
Catalytic ActivityAn alcohol + NAD(+) = an aldehyde or ketone + NADH.
CautionThe reference genome assembly, GRCh37, describes a non- functional copy of that gene with a stop codon at position 78. However, this premature stop codon is not present in available mRNAs.
CofactorName=Zn(2+); Xref=ChEBI
MiscellaneousThere are 7 different ADH's isozymes in human: three belongs to class-I
PolymorphismTwo main alleles are known, ADH3*1 or gamma-1 has Arg-272/Ile-350 while ADH3*2 or gamma-2 has Gln-272/Val-350. ADH3*1 is associated with a fast rate of ethanol oxidation and ADH3*2 with a slow rate.
SimilarityBelongs to the zinc-containing alcohol dehydrogenase family.
