ALDH3F1 — Phaseolus vulgaris

Summary

PHAVU_003G258500, designated PvALDH3F1 on chromosome 3 of French bean (Phaseolus vulgaris), encodes an aldehyde dehydrogenase family protein with succinate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase (NAD+) activity and additional activities toward 4-trimethylammoniobutyraldehyde, aminobutyraldehyde, gamma-guanidinobutyraldehyde, and betaine-aldehyde. The gene is associated with GABA catabolism, alkanal metabolism, cellular detoxification of aldehyde, and response to abscisic acid. Its product localises to the amyloplast, mitochondrial lumen, endoplasmic reticulum, plasmalemma, and cytoplasm. Related genes in other species link the family to multiple aldehyde dehydrogenase enzyme classes (EC 1.2.1.24, 1.2.1.3, 1.2.1.47, 1.2.1.54, 1.2.1.19, 1.2.1.8).
