Immunogen:
The immunogen is a synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal region of human ALDH4A1
Alternative Names:
P5CD, ALDH4, P5CDh
ALDH4A1 belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenase family of proteins. This enzyme is a mitochondrial matrix NAD-dependent dehydrogenase which catalyzes the second step of the proline degradation pathway, converting pyrroline-5-carboxylate to glutamate. Deficiency of this enzyme is associated with type II hyperprolinemia, an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by accumulation of delta-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate (P5C) and proline.This protein belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenase family of proteins.

Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been identified for this gene.
