FunFam 18773: Acetaldehyde dehydrogenase

There are 1 EC terms in this cluster

Please note: EC annotations are assigned to the full protein sequence rather than individual protein domains. Since a given protein can contain multiple domains, it is possible that some of the annotations below come from additional domains that occur in the same protein, but have been classified elsewhere in CATH.

Note: The search results have been sorted with the annotations that are found most frequently at the top of the list. The results can be filtered by typing text into the search box at the top of the table.

EC Term Annotations Evidence
Acetaldehyde dehydrogenase (acetylating). [EC: 1.2.1.10]
Acetaldehyde + CoA + NAD(+) = acetyl-CoA + NADH.
  • Also acts, more slowly, on glycolaldehyde, propanal and butanal.
  • In several bacterial species this enzyme forms a bifunctional complex with EC 4.1.3.39.
  • The enzymes from the bacteria Burkholderia xenovorans and Thermus thermophilus also perform the reaction of EC 1.2.1.87.
  • Involved in the meta-cleavage pathway for the degradation of phenols, methylphenols and catechols.
  • NADP(+) can replace NAD(+) but the rate of reaction is much slower.
