Target Details for ALDH1A2

Target: ALDH1A2 (Aldehyde Dehydrogenase 1 Family, Member A2 (ALDH1A2))

Alternative Name: ALDH1A2

Background: ALDH1A2, RALDH2, Retinal dehydrogenase 2, RALDH 2, RalDH2, Aldehyde dehydrogenase family 1 member A2, Retinaldehyde-specific dehydrogenase type 2, RALDH(II)This protein ALDH1A2 belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenase family of proteins. The product of ALDH1A2 (aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 family member A2) is an enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of retinoic acid (RA) from retinaldehyde. Retinoic acid, the active derivative of vitamin A (retinol), is a hormonal signaling molecule that functions in developing and adult tissues. The studies of a similar mouse gene suggest that this enzyme and the cytochrome CYP26A1, concurrently establish local embryonic retinoic acid levels which facilitate posterior organ development and prevent spina bifida. Four transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified for ALDH1A2.
