ALDH3A2
Catalyzes the oxidation of medium and long chain aliphatic aldehydes to fatty acids. Active on a variety of saturated and unsaturated aliphatic aldehydes between 6 and 24 carbons in length. Responsible for conversion of the sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) degradation product hexadecenal to hexadecenoic acid. Belongs to the aldehyde dehydrogenase family. Detected in liver (at protein level). 2 alternatively spliced human isoforms have been reported. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
