ALDH — Pisum sativum

Summary

PSAT6G041560 (symbol ALDH) on garden pea chromosome 6LG2 encodes a protein with aldehyde dehydrogenase domains and annotated aldehyde dehydrogenase (NAD+) activity. This gene is associated with carnitine anabolism, alkanal metabolism, detoxification, and response to abscisic acid. The encoded product is localized to the amyloplast. Related genes in other species link it to aldehyde dehydrogenase (NAD+) activity (EC 1.2.1.3).
