Alcohol Dehydrogenase 2 (ADH2)

[Edit]

ADH1B; Alcohol dehydrogenase subunit beta

Alcohol Dehydrogenase 2 (ADH2)
ADH2 encoded by this gene is a member of the alcohol dehydrogenase family. Members of this enzyme family metabolize a wide variety of substrates, including ethanol, retinol, other aliphatic alcohols, hydroxysteroids, and lipid peroxidation products. This encoded protein, consisting of several homo- and heterodimers of alpha, beta, and gamma subunits, exhibits high activity for ethanol oxidation and plays a major role in ethanol catabolism.
Three genes encoding alpha, beta and gamma subunits are tandemly organized in a genomic segment as a gene cluster. Previously ADH1B was called ADH2. There are more genes in the family of alcohol and aldehyde dehydrogenase genes. These genes are now referred to as ADH1A, ADH1C, and ADH4, ADH5, ADH6 and ADH7.

Organism species: Homo sapiens (Human)
