General description
ALDH4A1 (aldehyde dehydrogenase 4 family member A1) belongs to the ALDH family of proteins, and exists as a homodimer. It has a molecular weight of 142-175kDa. This protein is composed of 563 amino acids. It is an NAD+-dependent dehydrogenase localized to the mitochondrial matrix.
Immunogen

Application
All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.
The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions
ALDH4A1 (aldehyde dehydrogenase 4 family member A1) catalyzes the oxidation of γ-glutamate semialdehyde to l-glutamate, in an NAD+-dependent manner. It also catalyzes the second step of hydroxyproline catabolism in humans. Mutations in this gene are linked to type II hyperprolinemia (HPII), which is an autosomal recessive disorder, and results in increased levels of ALDH4A1 enzyme and proline in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), urine and plasma. HPII is characterized by neurological aberrations including seizures, and mental retardation.
Features and Benefits
Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
- IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
- Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

The proline catabolic enzyme Δ(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase (ALDH4A1) catalyzes the NAD(+)-dependent oxidation of γ-glutamate semialdehyde to l-glutamate. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, ALDH4A1 is encoded by the PUT2 gene and known as Put2p. Here we report the steady-state kinetic parameters of the purified

Delta 1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase (P5CDh; EC 1.5.1.12), a mitochondrial matrix NAD(+)-dependent dehydrogenase, catalyzes the second step of the proline degradation pathway. Deficiency of this enzyme is associated with type II hyperprolinemia (HPII), an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by accumulation of delta

Type II hyperprolinemia is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by a deficiency in Δ(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase (P5CDH; also known as ALDH4A1), the aldehyde dehydrogenase that catalyzes the oxidation of glutamate semialdehyde to glutamate. Here, we report the first structure of human

The initial step in the degradation pathways of proline and hydroxyproline is catalyzed by proline oxidase and hydroxyproline oxidase, yielding delta 1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate and delta 1-pyrroline-3-hydroxy-5-carboxylate, respectively. The second step is the oxidation of delta 1-pyrroline-5-carboxylate to glutamate and delta 1-pyrroline-3-hydroxy-5-carboxylate
