ALDH6A1
-
Official Full Name
aldehyde dehydrogenase 6 family, member A1
-
Overview
This protein belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenases family of proteins. This enzyme plays a role in the valine and pyrimidine catabolic pathways. The product of this gene, a mitochondrial methylmalonate semialdehyde dehydrogenase, catalyzes the irreversible oxidative decarboxylation of malonate and methylmalonate semialdehydes to acetyl- and propionyl-CoA. Methylmalonate semialdehyde dehydrogenase deficiency is characterized by elevated beta-alanine, 3-hydroxypropionic acid, and both isomers of 3-amino and 3-hydroxyisobutyric acids in urine organic acids. -

Q&As (12)
Ask a questionResearch is ongoing to further understand the role of the ALDH6A1 protein in human health and to develop potential therapeutic strategies for hyperprolinemia type II. Studies aim to elucidate the biochemical pathways affected by mutations in the ALDH6A1 gene and explore novel treatment options to alleviate the symptoms of the condition.
Various single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been identified in the ALDH6A1 gene. These common genetic variations can affect the regulation, expression, or function of the ALDH6A1 protein to varying degrees. However, the functional significance and clinical implications of most ALDH6A1 gene polymorphisms are still not well understood and require further research.
The ALDH6A1 protein is primarily known for its involvement in the metabolism of amino acids, but it may also have additional functions. Some studies suggest that ALDH6A1 may play a role in the detoxification of reactive aldehydes, such as acrolein, which can be produced as a result of oxidative stress or certain chemical exposures.
While the primary function of the ALDH6A1 protein is related to amino acid metabolism, it indirectly influences other cellular processes. For example, the breakdown of proline, catalyzed by ALDH6A1, provides important building blocks for the synthesis of collagen and other connective tissues. Thus, ALDH6A1 indirectly affects processes related to tissue development and maintenance.
Currently, there are no known pharmacological inhibitors or activators specifically targeting ALDH6A1. However, some compounds that target related enzymes involved in amino acid metabolism, such as ALDH2 inhibitors or activators, have been developed. It is possible that such compounds may indirectly affect ALDH6A1 activity, but this would require further research and investigation.
Yes, mutations in the ALDH6A1 gene can result in a rare genetic disorder known as hyperprolinemia type II, also called pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthase (P5CS) deficiency. This condition affects the normal breakdown and metabolism of proline, leading to the accumulation of the amino acid in the body.
The specific protein interactions or regulatory mechanisms involving ALDH6A1 are not extensively studied. However, it is known that the ALDH6A1 protein is regulated by various factors, including genetic and epigenetic mechanisms that control its expression levels. Further research is needed to identify specific protein partners or regulatory pathways associated with ALDH6A1.
Targeting the ALDH6A1 protein directly for therapeutic intervention is currently not a common approach. However, understanding its role in disorders like hyperprolinemia type II may pave the way for developing targeted therapies in the future. Genetic therapies or interventions that enhance the function or expression of ALDH6A1 may be explored in specific cases.
Currently, hyperprolinemia type II is the only known genetic disorder associated with ALDH6A1 gene mutations. However, ongoing research may reveal other conditions or diseases that are linked to abnormalities in the ALDH6A1 gene.
The expression of ALDH6A1 protein is not ubiquitous and varies across tissues and cell types. It is primarily expressed in organs involved in amino acid metabolism, such as the liver and kidneys, as well as in the brain. It is also found in other tissues, including the heart, lungs, and skeletal muscles, albeit at lower levels compared to the liver and kidneys.
To date, there are no known diseases or conditions that have been directly linked to dysregulation of ALDH6A1 expression. However, ALDH6A1 activity is known to be influenced by various factors, including genetic variations, hormonal regulation, and cellular signaling pathways. Dysregulation of these factors could potentially affect ALDH6A1 expression and activity, leading to metabolic imbalances or other cellular dysfunctions.
ALDH6A1 is not directly implicated in major developmental processes. However, the breakdown of proline catalyzed by ALDH6A1 contributes to the production of important molecules involved in tissue development and maintenance, such as collagen. Therefore, ALDH6A1 indirectly plays a role in processes related to tissue and organ development.
