About Aldh18a1

Summary

Enables glutamate 5-kinase activity. Predicted to be involved in alpha-amino acid metabolic process and response to temperature stimulus. Predicted to act upstream of or within cellular amino acid biosynthetic process. Located in mitochondrion. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; cardiovascular system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cataract; cutis laxa (multiple); enterocele; and hereditary spastic paraplegia (multiple). Orthologous to human ALDH18A1 (aldehyde dehydrogenase 18 family member A1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
