ADH1 — Verticillium dahliae

Summary

VDAG_10528 (symbol ADH1) in Verticillium dahliae encodes a protein with aldo-keto reductase (NAD) activity and zinc binding, belonging to the zinc-binding alcohol dehydrogenase family. This gene is associated with biogenic amine metabolism, amine metabolism, methylation, and RNA-directed DNA methylation (RdDM), as well as general homeostasis. The encoded product is localized to the cytoplasm, mitochondrial lumen, and the fungal biofilm matrix. Studies of related genes in other species link the ADH1 family to alcohol dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.1) activity.
